Outdoor activities for dogs are a vital part of both physical health and mental wellbeing. Time spent outside provides opportunities for exercise, enrichment, socialization, and relationship-building between dogs and their guardians. Whether you are wandering local trails, visiting a dog-friendly café, or heading out on a city stroll, outdoor time helps meet your dog’s biological and emotional needs.
