Because it’s fun. That is what a researcher surmised after watching a herd of buffalo run down a hill, only to trek back up and run down again…and again…
So we at Front Porch Pets are not only making the pitch to buy our delicious and healthy dog chews, but making the pitch to remind animal owners that all animals need the Two “A’s”, Attention and Activity. These will help prevent one of the most pervasive forms of animal abuse-Boredom. Attention and Activity create interaction, this leads to fun and interest for your companion animal. For you too! It is known that many animals need to walk (or lope or trot etc) not only for the pursuit of food, but as importantly it keeps the digestive system moving, the pads on the feet or paws healthy and their bodies toned. Elephants often travel 50 miles per day. Wolves and coyotes travel many more miles than that. If these wild animals lope this many miles certainly dogs need at least a good walk once or twice a day. |

Your Dog Needs the Two “A’s”, Attention and Activity. | ||
So c’mon, dogs are our companions. If you run every day, run with your dog, if you swim, swim with your dog, if you bungee jump, leave little Elvis at home. Dogs love to be with us, so find as many opportunities to include your dog in your activities. Yes, even miniatures seem to love going for a ride in the Gucci purse. |
