Ten ways you can have fun with your canine companion, www.coatsmadebyde.com

Get Active With Your Dog


Frisbee

Dogs are so fantastic for the health of their people.  Not only do they give us limitless love and companionship.  They provide us with tons of opportunities to be active and more healthy ourselves. 


Agility

Looking for something different to do with your dog?

Pretty much everyone knows about the basics; going for a walk, playing fetch in the backyard. maybe going for a run or a bike ride.  However, there are so many more out there.  The average person can participate in a number of them without a whole lot of preparation.  How many do you know of?


Lure Coursing

Ten activities you might want to do with your dogs

1)  Agility

2)  Flyball

3)  Dock Diving

4)  Frisbee

5)  Barn Hunting

6)  Lure Coursing

7)   Obedience

8)   Rally

Dock Diving


This list is not inclusive by any means. It's only the start of an introduction to the sports.  Depending on breed, time, training, money...........there are many more activities or sports out there.  

The activities I have listed usually have local groups that can help you get started. And they have events or competitions for like minded people.  They are all dog lovers and generally welcome the newcomer.

If you're reading this, I imagine you are a dog lover as well.  Why not check out some of these activities and build on your relationship with your dog while you are getting active and healthy too?

  1. Those are all great activities to engage in with your pup! I'd add daily walks & occasional hikes to the list! Our pups go for backpack walks every morning :-)
