Legs Bums and Tails - Burns Pet Nutrition

Get fit with your dog

Are your dog’s exercise levels down in the winter’s months? Perhaps, like many of us humans, they’ve also gained a little excess weight, with a few too many irresistible festive foodie treats!

Well, no need to panic! We’ve teamed up with Strictly Come Dancing professional Neil Jones, who alongside his dog Crumble, has created a series of dance-based exercises to help you and your dogs get match fit together in 2024.

And be assured that you and your pet are not alone. In recent research we conducted amongst dog owners, we found almost a quarter of us confessing to having overweight dogs, whilst a third admit to walking their dogs less in the colder weather.

“It’s not just people that get a bit porky over Christmas! Whilst I always focus on my own fitness, I must admit I don’t always do the same for my dog. With the help of nutritionists and behaviourists at Burns, we’ve come up with five great activities for you to try at home to get you and your dog feeling great and having fun,” says Neil.

See how Neil and Crumble can teach you and your dog through five easy and fun workouts such as the Shih Tzu Salsa, Paw-sodoble and Jack Russell Jive.

You and your dog will be sashaying yourselves back to paw-fect fitness in no time!
