Fetch
Your pooch is a natural when it comes to catching things in the air, so a lively game of fetch will get your pup-fessional soaring over the competition like the next LeBron James.
Hiking
Time to break out the doggy-sized duffle bag and walking shoes because your dog was born to hike! Many large working dog breeds are built for pulling carts and carrying heavy loads over long distances. Consider packing your pooch a small bag of tasty treats and toys to haul while on your next hike.

Walking
Slow and steady is the name of the game for your pooch. Furry friends with calm, relaxed demeanors like Brittanys and Standard Schnauzers make great walking partners. Whether it’s early in the morning or an after-dinner stroll, your pup is ready to step out and enjoy some relaxing recreation with you.
