Expanded Description:

Pilates for Pooches will teach your dog to move from its core while actively stretching and strengthening its muscles by using various boxes and wobble devices.

This DVD presents:

*Lecture, outline, and demonstration videos to guide you through this revolutionary program step by step. *Bonus Section: Getting Started with a Puppy. *Three printable documents (PDF files) summarizing information from the video: oConditioning guidelines oExercise outlines oA log for monitoring your dog’s progress.

Whether your dog is an athletic performance dog or a family pet, the common sense Fit Dogs program will help meet your fitness goals for your dog. The dogs have so much fun while improving their balance, body awareness, flexibility and muscle strength that they don’t want to stop. Many dogs, including Sarah’s 12-year old agility champion, have shown that the Fit Dogs program really works!

Sarah Johnson, M.A., Exercise Physiologist, was one of the first to bring human Pilates to Northern California in the early 1990s. Using similar concepts, she has now designed and implemented a simple, progressive home exercise program for healthy dogs. You and your dog will enjoy this fun and innovative core strengthening and conditioning program.

useful for all dogs!, January 19, 2009
Reviewer: Stevie Mathre
Only one thing drops this video down to 3 paws, otherwise it would be a 5-paw review. That's Johnson's improper use of the clicker. She's clicking without clear criteria, and multiple behaviours. Honestly, a clicker is completely unnecessary here: she's right there by the dog, treats are quickly delivered, and what does the dog need to figure out that needs that kind of precision?

In other respects this is a valuable addition to my toolkit. I'm especially pleased with it in respect to my older dogs as they age. The exersices are clearly demonstrated, and sometimes that makes the video seem slow. But it's good to see the entire sequence of moves.

I recommend this DVD!
