Does your dog gets the right amount of exercise?
For most people, the exercise of a dog is a trip to the park to run around. In some cases this may suffice, but responsible owners should be aware of the quantity and quality of exercise your dog needs to maintain optimal health. Get the following questions.
1) How often does your dog is exercised?
It does not take a genius to realize that gain weight if you do not burn calorie intake. Exercise is extremely important to the health and well being of your dog. Put the dogs are happier, more active, more mobile and less susceptible to health problems such as arthritis, torn ligaments and heart disease. With this great individual variation among races and ages, not may recommend an amount of exercise that every dog should have, but all dogs require at least one walk a day with the most athletic that require two.
2) What kind of exercise does your dog do?
While on foot or two a day may be perfectly adequate exercise for your dog, there is a huge benefit obtained from the mix is a bit and try new activities. Adding variety to an exercise routine provides extra dogs physical and mental challenges that might be interesting and rewarding for both dog and owner. If your dog has medical conditions (eg arthritis, heart problems), you should consult a veterinarian before add exercises unknown. Here we look at the different types of exercise possible.
- Walking and Hiking
The most common form of exercise for dogs. Always keep your dog on a leash unless in a park or rural area without traffic. Be careful with the possible presence of other dogs in public places can be raised in an irresponsible manner and show your dog's aggression.
- Jogging
For your dog to run beside you and adapt to fluctuations in speed will require some training, but if you are a keen runner is a great way to exercise your dog. Be sure to choose a pace that is comfortable for your dog run only attempt if you and your dog are able to walk briskly for 30 minutes without getting tired.
- Cycling
This is great if you have access the area where your dog can safely run the tip. Also ideal for athletic dogs need to run a greater distance than they do for a training appropriate. If you want to cycle with your dog in urban areas, he or she must have impeccable ways ideally lead and respond to commands such as left and right. Early morning cycling when there is less traffic is wise, and avoid busy roads.
- Inline skating
Skating, and cycling, athletic dogs means often the opportunity to race at home. However, since you can not go on the grass and concrete-related, it is only really suitable, with a dog in a park, where you not have to worry about traffic. Your dog should be taught as slow and stop commands, leaving only his head off if he or she is obedient ultra. The use of a harness instead of one allowed to drive more control in this exercise.
- Skip and search
For your dog to fetch a ball can provide hours of entertainment and is an excellent exercise. Make sure the ball is not small enough to be swallowed accidentally. Also synthetic toys such as balls are much more sure that the suits, which can fragment in the dogs mouth and gets stuck in the throat.
- Frisbee
Playing frisbee is fun for some dogs, but it is necessary to have a large garden or a nearby park, where your dog can run freely off leash. This is great for the lazy person as being more or less stationary while your dog has a full workout. It is clear that not all dogs are willing or able to catch the frisbee, so that only those races that collect the skills are adequate. Playing frisbee should be avoided in dogs with teeth or mouth problems, and also in dogs with joint problems and susceptible to damage in the cruciate ligaments.
- Circuit and agility
Familiar with the obedience competitions will be very aware of the fun and satisfaction that had to do this activity. You and your dog run around a series of obstacles, in order to pass through each without a problem. Courses often consist Jumping bars (obstacles of different heights by race), a tunnel (usually about 3 feet long), a ramp and a slalom (5 or more bars in a row). The key is the time to start rewarding your dog with enthusiasm to make every obstacle with sweets. You must drive through the obstacle course, teach him to respond to instructions such as Up!, and body language, such as the outstretched palm of his hand the meaning Stop!
- Swimming
Swimming is one of the best exercises are for you and your dog, you are using every muscle in the body. If you are lucky enough to have a place where you and your dog are allowed to swim, and is also safe, then this is a very beneficial activity. If you are swimming in the sea, make sure it is a lifesaver in case, and be aware that the current cold water and therefore increase the effort required as more calories are burned. Swimming is especially beneficial for dogs with arthritis and other joint problems because it increases muscle strength without putting stress on joints.
- Football
Start the game by kicking the ball slowly across the floor to his dog, and encourage you to do so. Because the ball is too large to collect in your mouth, which will take him or her some time to realize to be pushed with the nose or paws. Offer praise and encouragement as he or she gets the hang of it. Small breeds may deliver a ball smaller rubber instead of a soccer ball. Make sure the ball is not small enough to be swallowed yet.
