Walking with a dog as a workout partner ensures consistency in exercise routine due to their excitement for daily walks.
Walking a dog can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, and spending time with a dog can lower cortisol levels, making them ideal service animals for veterans and people with PTSD.
Engaging in daily physical activity not only improves skeletal and muscular health but also maintains cardiovascular well-being.
Regular exercise can improve the quality and quantity of sleep, as observed in dogs who often nap after physical activity.
