Keeping Your Dog Fit in the Winter
I was googling around tonight as I do most nights and I ran across on old story about weight loss supplements for dogs. While I guess there might be situations where this could help your dog who has extreme medical issues I don't think you have to go to such extremes.
Winter is here and today was -31 for most of the day. Pretty hard to get out and get your dog some proper exercise. If you have a yard you can at least let your dog out for small periods of time so he or she can burn off some steam. Be very careful though their paws can very cold and very quickly. They will know enough to come in from the cold. You can also take some extra time for "play time" in the house. Play with your rope toys or other toys like a good game of fetch in the basement or other open areas. Just make sure you are giving them a bit of activity regarless of the weather outside.
