Your pup has already mastered downward dog, so move onto the next dog yoga pose.

Your dog loves long walks on the beach, chasing after chipmunks and going on a jog with you.   Why not shake up the routine with a little bit of dog yoga?  Both you and your tail-wagger will benefit from practicing yoga together.

Why Dogs Make the Perfect Yoga Companions:

• Yoga is about being in the moment and developing a sense of oneness
• Dogs are in the moment and all about union because they’re pack animals

Benefits of Doga for Dogs and Humans:

• Teaches trust
• Aids in relaxation and stress relief
• Improves circulation and range of motion
• Can mellow hyperactive dogs

Doga is a great way to strengthen the bond with you and your four-legged friend. Have you ever considered pampering your pooch this way?
