AKC FIT DOG

Now more than ever, fitness is important for both dogs and people. The most commonly recommended exercise to improve fitness is walking. Walking is considered a safe activity that improves muscular strength, circulation, memory, weight loss, increases energy, helps with sleep, and reduces stress. The American Heart Association recommends walking a minimum of 150 minutes per week. Participation in the AKC FIT DOG program will bring health benefits to both you and your dog. Wildside Unlimited AKC Fit Dog is not only an online opportunity to walk with your dog, but we will be announcing group walks for all participants. The AKC FIT DOG magnet proudly declares to the world that you are committed to your dog’s health and fitness through regular exercise. You can order your free magnet when you and your dog have met one of these fitness goals: Walked at least 30 minutes 5 times per week for a total of at least 150 minutes per week for at least 3 months. For senior dogs or mobility compromised dogs: Walked at least 15 minutes per session at least 10 times per week (e.g., two 15-min walks per day) for at least 3 months.
