Exercise is terrific for our body and mind. While it has been a challenge for most of us over the past few months, the easing of lockdowns should motivate us to get out again. If you’ve ever had trouble sticking to your fitness goals, consider how your playful pooch can help you out. Our dogs love to exercise and will seldom turn up the chance to get moving and explore the outdoors.  Exercising with your pup is a fantastic way to support their health and happiness as well as your own. It’s also a great way to improve the bond...

It can be hard for some to leave the house after being cooped up for so long.
