Use a dog raincoat and enjoy a workout with your pup


Exercise is important for dogs as much as it is for humans. Our four legged friends need exercise as much as they need nutrition. If dogs are deprived of exercise it will result in many health hazards. So even as the rains set in and your reluctance to exercise is exacerbated, don’t give in. Unless there is a storm brewing, there is no acceptable reason to give your dog's workout a miss.


Here are some pointers that will help you keep your dog in shape all year round • Most dogs need exercise for short periods ranging between 30-60 minutes. However, jogging and running for young puppies over a prolonged period of time is not advisable.

• If dogs do not get regular exercise they are bound to develop obesity and contract diabetes. Regular exercise on the other hand boosts your dog’s immunity and keeps them agile and active.



• Lack of exercise will have negative consequences on your dog’s health and its behavior. Destructive chewing, digging, unnecessarily scratching things, excessive whining in the night are some common symptoms that show up early. • Simple exercises like a game of fetch, a good old run, or even using the stairs help keep them active. So despite the rain, take your dog for its run and make sure it wears a dog raincoat. • Your dog's mental health is as important as its physical health. Therefore encourage behavioral games and teach it to obey a few commands as part of its primary behavioral training and to increases his mental health.



• Breeds of dogs that have short and flatter noses, like Pugs, Chihuahuas, etc. do not like exercising in warm weather. But that doesn’t mean you don't exercise them at all. Try indoor activities and games to give these cuties a good workout. • Similarly, dogs love playing with other dogs. That itself is a healthy form of exercise for them. Try to organize play dates for your four legged wonders. Try putting on clothes for your dogs on such occasions. • It is very important to use dog jackets that are appropriate to the weather. Anything that will add to the heat or make the dog feel stuffy should be avoided. Make sure your dog is comfortable during its exercise sessions.
