Pets especially dogs need some degree of exercise, but most will thrive with extra stimulation. Very active dogs are ideal candidates for high-performance sports like agility and flyball, though almost any healthy dog can enjoy participation.

Benefits of Dog Sports:

most sports increase muscle tone and strength, which can help your dog maintain a healthy weight, and prevent injuries. Obesity in dogs is linked to many health problems, and in addition, many experts think that a solid exercise program can stave off, or at least retard, hip dysplasia.

And just as it is important to keep your pets' minds healthy, you also need to keep their body fit and healthy.
