'Ruff' and tumble


Exercise is good for your dog. Maybe that's not a newsflash, but this here article offers some ways you can vary your dog's routine. One creative thing is to take a play toy with you--say, on your daily walk--and add chasing to the walking. (The dog, not you.) As for cats, as Husband and I can attest, they are more prone to short bursts of cardio, rather than longer periods of exercise. Think sprinters vs. marathoners.
On the subject of canines, we ran this story today about a Top Dog show this Sunday at a local park. There's also a track so maybe you can run around with Fifi before the Big Event.
