Yesterday was Walking the Dog Day. If you own a dog and didn’t
walk him yesterday, shame on you. You should actually be walking him every day.
Walking improves cardiovascular fitness, lowers blood pressure, strengthens
muscles and bones, and decreases stress – for both you and the dog. Your furry
friend has such a short lifespan to begin with. Most dogs don’t live to see the
age of thirteen. Chances are he’ll spend most of that time wondering when you’ll
come home. The very least you can do is share a pleasant walk with him. While
you’re at it, you might pick up a package of dog biscuits for your four-footed
companion. He’ll enjoy the treat, and it might even help to keep tartar off his
teeth. Besides, February 23 is National Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day.
