Everybody needs exercise, including your Doggo! The problem is that we are all busy and you may not have the time to spend an hour a day walking your best friend around the block.

Here are some cool, innovative and fun ways to make exercise fun for both of you:

#1 - Dogg-O-Mill

Most Hoomans hate treadmills. Not doggos! Yes, while there are special treadmills made for dogs, most can be used with a harness and a little training.


#2 - Play Hide and Seek with Treats in Toilet Paper Tubes

Try this. Save your old toilet paper tubes. When you have 4-5, fill each with a treat and hide them throughout the house. Dogs, on average, can smell 1,000 to 10,000 times better than humans. If there is a treat out there, they are going to find it. This is great because not only does the dog get physical exercise searching for the treats, they get mental problem-solving exercise too!


#3 - Dog Treats in Frozen Towel

Try this. Save your old toilet paper tubes. When you have 4-5, fill each with a treat and hide them throughout the house. Dogs, on average, can smell 1,000 to 10,000 times better than humans. If there is a treat out there, they are going to find it. This is great because not only does the dog get physical exercise searching for the treats, they get mental problem-solving exercise too!

#4 - Take the Stairs

Playing fetch can be exhausting…. FOR YOU! Why? Because your Doggo can run ALL DAY. Not if you incorporate stairs! Just like us, our four-legged friends get pooped out much faster if you add stairs or sloped into the mix. Throw a toy up a flight of stairs and after 4-5 tosses it will be nap time.


That’s it.


Four brand new ways to make exercise fun for you and your doggo!
Give one or all four a try!
