It is Time to Celebrate National Walk Your Dog Week!
We are celebrating National Walk Your Dog Week from October 1st through the 7th! The focus of this fun celebration is for you to improve the well-being and health of your pups by taking them outside for a daily walk. Getting regular exercise is especially important if you or your dog have gained a few pounds recently.
Daily walks also help prevent behavior problems common in dogs who are left alone all day or crated. It provides them with the sensory stimulation and physical outlet they need to keep in good spirits.
How To Celebrate National Walk Your Dog Week
To celebrate the week, commit to a daily 30-minute brisk walk with your pup so you both get the heart-healthy exercise you need. Dogs love to spend time with their pet parent, and going for walks with you is always a favorite activity.
Perhaps pick up a new colorful leash and collar for your pet to wear on your excursions. If you plan on doing the walks at dawn or dusk, be sure to choose a reflective option.
Enjoying a brisk walk together every day of National Walk Your Dog Week may lead you to make this a regular habit, especially if you notice you and your pet are looking slimmer and trimmer.
At Pet Hospitals of Hawaii, we are committed to caring for your pets as if they are our own. Regular check-ups help your dog stay healthy and happy. Contact us today to schedule an appointment at one of our three convenient locations.
