Use a hands-free leash and a harness or collar that won't choke your dog while running.
Right Gear
Gradually build up your dog's endurance by starting with short distances and mixing jogging with walking.
Running Slowly
Avoid running when it's too hot or cold outside to keep your dog comfortable. Know the signs of overheating.
Temperature
Teach cues like "with me" to keep your dog close by your side throughout the run.
Commands
If your dog is lagging, panting heavily, or slowing down, it's time for a break.
Signs of Fatigue
Have water easily accessible for your dog to prevent dehydration.
Collapsible Bowls
Check paw pads regularly for signs of injury from running on rough terrain.
