The cards that helps you effectively and easily train your dog, without any separate equipment. All you need is your dog and treats. The training works just as well indoors as outdoors, which makes it easy to find opportunities when it's appropriate to train your dog. Maybe you can do an exercise while you're on a walk? Or why not take the deck cards with you if you're traveling.
Are you wondering why you should strength train your dog? Well, to strengthen muscles and joints, which reduces the risk of injuries, to improve balance and coordination, which is needed in everyday life, to challenge your dog's brain and increase concentration, and to have a closer relationship with your dog.
The dog fitness card deck consists of 40 cards of different exercises that train your dog's entire body. To make it easier for you as a dog owner to do a more balanced workout where the whole body gets to work, the cards are divided into four different colors: yellow for core exercises, pink for front legs, green for back legs and blue for full body.
If you thought sit-ups and push-ups were only for humans, think again. Here is the dog version of these exercises. Other exercises are hind leg lifts, pelvic tilts, side walks and backward circles.
Each card shows which muscles are trained and there is also a QR code. When you scan it, you will see a film where Victoria demonstrates the exercise. To give you even more information and more meat on your bones, a 60-page fact booklet is included. In the book, each exercise is detailed with a longer explanation of how to perform the exercise. As an added bonus, the booklet contains examples of some training plans that you can use to ensure that the whole body is trained.
The fitness card deck is suitable for all dogs, from puppies and young dogs to competition dogs and seniors.
The Nordic Ecolabeled card deck is manufactured in Sweden.
