Dogs Make Great Personal Trainers
Dogs help you stay active and feel great — even short daily walks support your health and routine.
Owning a dog can increase your physical activity and support your mental health — they offer motivation, routine, and companionship.
Benefits of having a dog:
- Daily walks lead to more consistent movement
- Reduces stress and boosts mood through companionship
- Encourages social interaction and connection
- Provides structure and purpose, especially for those living alone
If you’re not ready to own a dog, consider helping walk a neighbour’s pet or volunteering at a local shelter. It’s a great way to stay active and feel good — no gym required.
