Just like humans, it’s important for dogs to get plenty of physical activity in order to lead a healthy life. Many dogs suffer from obesity, which puts a strain on their hip and leg joints and can lead to heart disease and internal problems as well. If you want your pup to live a long, healthy life, physical enrichment is a must.
But physical enrichment doesn’t just make a dog healthier, it makes them happier, as it reduces stress and balances their hormones. Have an anxious dog? Physical enrichment helps them burn off excess energy and triggers the release of endorphins, which helps comfort them. Have a puppy? Keeping a puppy well exercised can help lessen destructive behaviors like chewing shoes and furniture, or barking excessively at the front door.
