Dogs get more than just exercise from walking

Posted August 9, 2016

Think of your leash as a telephone line to your dog. When you are walking your dog properly, you should both be relaxed. Your hands should be at waist level. Your dog should be at your left side...not in front of you...not behind you. Ideally, the leash should be relaxed enough so there is a U in the leash, between you and your dog.

Dog walking benefits: Great exercise for both of you, bonding and training time and it gives the dog the skills to find his way home if he gets lost.
