Do you have a dog who needs physical training and mental stimulation? Dog sports can help your pets be active. Some degree of exercise is required by all dogs, but most thrive for extra stimulation. The most active breeds of dogs are ideal for sports like agility and flyball. 

Before starting any sports with your dog take them for the veterinary examination. Once you get the clearance from the vet, play these popular sports that can challenge your dog’s mind and body on this national sports day. 

Disc Dog-

This game is also known as Frisbee where you throw a Frisbee towards your dog to catch. For this game, you must be able to properly throw the disc while controlling the distance and direction. The dog can be trained to change and catch the disc.

Fly Ball

Fly Ball is basically fetching the ball. This game helps to maintain the discipline and increase the focus. You must develop a proper connection with them without yelling or beating them. Small breeds love to impress their owners and will do anything to please them. So take advantage of that and establish a good connect through fly ball.

Treibball

This game is basically for bigger pets. In this game the dogs will have to heard the balls into a goal of sorts and make sure they cross the lines and stay in; its basically like herding minus the sheep.  

Dock Jumping

Dock jumping is much like a human long jump but with water. The best dogs for this game are high energy dogs that love sports. You have to throw the toy in the dock in an attempt to get the dog to jump as far as possible.

On this National Sports Day go out with your dogs and with them. This will make them active and maintain a good appetite.

Here are we wishing you happy sports day to you and your doggo!
