Are certain breeds better suited for a JOG A DOG?
A walk around the block or a 15 minute romp in the backyard several times a day is minimal exercise and is NOT enough to meet the average dog’s needs. Active breeds such as dogs from the sporting, herding, hound and terrier groups, northern breeds and any mixture of these ( i.e. the vast majority of pet dogs ) and virtually all adolescents require much, much more exercise!!! However, a few dogs (not breed specific) do require very little exercise to maintain good health and will derive little benefit from a JOG A DOG. Like people, all people need exercise, some require more exercise than others to maintain good health. Always consult your veterinarian before you begin a new exercise program for your dog.
