Health & Fitness

Exercise Please

Exercise is an important part of life; the benefits are endless so why not do more? Like humans animals need exercise.  Hamsters have their wheel, mice have a maze, parrots have a "swing" perch, cats have a jungle gym & dogs have walks, agility and a variety of games like "fetch" (i.e. frisbies, chuck it balls etc.) so why are dogs obese? We had a client tell us "my dog doesn't like to walk" our response  respectfully was "all dogs like to walk, it's the human that doesn't like to walk."  http://www.chicwithpits.com/blog/2013/07/23/Excerise-Please.aspx
