Description
Get Fit with Your Dog does what it says on the tin. It is a blueprint for health, for you and your dog. With canine and human obesity in the UK and USA running at an all-time high of 40 and 30 percent, respectively, and exercise by both species in steady decline, it’s time for some informed action. This book tells you all you need to know about the dangers of being overweight, the benefits of excercise, physical and psychological, and the healthiest weight-loss regime to follow – for both you and your four-legged friend.
Discover the dangers of loving your dog too much, by giving him too much food and too many treats. Learn how to get fit, lose pounds, be happier, and live longer – together. Help your dog to go from fat to fit at your side and enjoy doing it. The benefits will be mutual. This book teaches you how to lose pounds steadily, increase your fitness gradually, and enjoy a longer life and more rewarding relationship. Follow the program of exercises and healthy-eating regime, and you and your loyal friend will soon notice the benefits. It is time to put your best foot and paw forward.

This was an informative and usable guide to exercising for people and their dogs. I appreciated that precautions were given based on breed, age and health needs.
This an excellent companion book for exercising with dogs. The book contains good references and useful information to prepare the workout with our lovely companion.
I fell in love with this book's cover and the content did not disappoint! While there are other books out there on this topic, "Get Fit with Your Dog" must be one of the best ones. The production value is outstanding and the activities are perfect for me to do with my Scottish collie Lucy. The author Karen Sullivan did a great job and her extensive nutrition background combined with her point of view (to have fun getting in shape together) make for a totally worthwhile read. Highly recommend.
Part nutrition guide, part fitness routine, and part dog training, this is an approachable way to start a fitness routine with your dog. Suggestions for both of you for types of workouts, what to eat, getting checked out by a doctor before starting, and more. Lots of full-color photos and helpful tips and charts.
Great book! It is a fun idea and helpful. We got some ideas we will try when considering getting fit and having our dog with us when doing this. It helps make this a family affair.
A fun book for the dog lover in your life. This book is perfect for all ages and really is descriptive work workout plans, stretching and how to get fit with your dog.
