Veterinarian Dr. Dodd Gives Tips on Keeping your Dog Active During Quarantine

Tips to Keep your Dog Active During Quarantine

Dr. Dodd wants everyone to know that the experts aren't seeing any transfer of the disease between humans and pets, so dog owners should not be concerned. 

He says we can help our dogs with their anxiety by establishing a routine with your pet - you can allow them to navigate around the house with you or play some fetch in the yard instead of just going for a walk first thing in the morning. But, do not overdo it.  

He also says that sporting dogs do well on a treadmill, but just make sure to watch them, and make sure to ask your veterinarian first.

Keep in mind to not hoard pet food, especially because companies that make pet food are essential business so it will not run out.

Right now is a time to get creative with keeping your fur baby active!
