Daily dog walks are a much needed part of most dogs
days and an excellent way to break up the time whilst
you are on holiday or at work.
Our professional dog walkers are more than happy to
take your dogs for a walk around the block, or a much
longer walk it is up to you. We offer dog walking for
30 minutes or more and will go at a pace to suit your
dog. ?

Dogs need their daily exercise, and even things like
it being too cold or hot outside or the days getting
shorter shouldn’t get in the way. Here are some tips
on how to work out your dog’s body and mind indoors:
1. Run your dog up and down the stairs.
Using the stairs is a great way to tire out your dog.
The steps add an additional challenge to a dog’s
workout, as they engage different muscles than those
used on a regular walk or run and add an extra level
of difficulty with the change in elevation. Stand at
the top of the stairs and throw a toy down to your
dog. When your dog grabs the toy, call his name and
have him bring the toy to you. After several rounds of
this, he’ll be winded.

2. Laser pointer.
Pick up an inexpensive laser pointer at a store and
shine it back and forth across the floor. Watch as your
dog chases the laser back and forth and works out in the
process. Be careful to avoid shining the laser directly
in a dog’s eyes, as this can cause damage to its
retinas.
3. Set up obstacle courses.
Whenever Cesar enters someone’s house on the show, he
looks around for things in the environment that can be
repurposed to help the dog. Like using that old hula
hoop for him to leap through or using cushions to create
a tunnel for him to navigate. Map everything out and
lead your dog through the various obstacles. This game
will challenge your dog both mentally and physically.
4. Make your dog work for its treats.
Take a variety of your dog’s favorite treats and hide
the around the house – behind doors, under tables,
underneath rugs, etc. Your dog will be so busy tracking
down his treats that he’ll physically tire out in the
process. Treat dispensing toys are another great way to
keep your dog busy and engage them physically as they
push around their toys and try to get to the food
inside.
5. Keep away and fetch.
Engage your dog in a good old fashioned game of fetch
and keep away. These games keep your dog engaged,
active, and help to release pent up energy.
6. Take a socialized outing.
Put your dog in the car (always remember to use a car
restraint!) and head over to the nearest pet store. Walk
your dog through the aisles, let him try out toys and
sniff around.
7. Get your dog on the treadmill.
A treadmill is a great way to get your dog a dose of
healthy indoor exercise. First, allow your dog to get
comfortable with the sight and sound of a running
treadmill. Next, place your dog on the treadmill and
give him a treat. Turn the treadmill on the lowest
speed. Give him treats to keep him on the treadmill. You
may use the dog’s leash as an aid but never tie your dog
to the treadmill. Also, standing in front of the
treadmill and rewarding him with treats for walking
might make your dog feel more comfortable. Once your dog
is adjusted, you can gradually increase the speed to
provide a more challenging workout.
8. Tug of War—But Be Aware of the Risks
With the amount of ropes and toys available that
encourage tug of war, it’s not surprising that so many
dog owners play this game with their dog. However, you
need to be aware of the risk. It's a game that brings
out the predator in your dog and can be unhealthy for
your relationship if you don't have trust and respect to
begin with. You need to have control over your dog's
power and instincts before you can engage in a healthy
game of tug of war with them
