Exercise for dogs isn’t just for their physical health, but for their mental and emotional health as well. Dogs by nature aren’t content to eat and sleep the day away. They need interaction and a stimulating environment to challenge them. They need an outlet for their energy, and if they have no way of releasing it, they tend to redirect it… and bad behavior is often the result.

Remember:

  • Regular exercise is necessary for your dog’s good health (especially his joints and cardio).
  • It’s interactive and thus, a way of connecting in a wonderfully positive way.
  • It counters boredom and restlessness, which could very well be the reasons why your dog is barking, chewing, or weeing in the first place.
