Dogs are up for anything. They’re your “pawtners” in crime, ready to take on new activities or just the standard walk down the street. Every activity is more fun with a four-legged best friend by your side. As fall settles in, it’s a perfect time to try out new adventures. Here are five things you can do this fall with your dog.
- Picnic in the park. Enjoy those last few days where the warm breeze lingers and head to the park. Bring along a blanket, snacks and a ball for your pup and take in the fresh air. For an extra special treat, pack a CESAR HOME DELIGHTS that your pup can enjoy during an activity break.
- Hit the pavement. Cooler temperatures and changing scenery make for a perfect workout backdrop. Get a workout in for both you and your pup by running or walking a new trail or park. Looking for a motivation boost? Sign up for a 5K race and commit to reaching a new goal.
- Make mealtime memorable. Change up mealtime by picking a CESAR HOME DELIGHTS recipe like Meat Lasagna or Pot Roast with Spring Vegetables for your dog, and make the human version of it for yourself. The CESAR brand offers a variety of irresistible flavors, and what better way to enjoy fall comfort food favorites than with your dog by your side. Find more at cesar.com.
- Snuggle up with a good book. A rainy day is the perfect time to lay back and relax. Open a good book and read aloud to your canine friend. Science has shown dogs respond to human voices the same way humans do, so reading in a calm, soothing voice will likely lull your pup, and possibly you, to sleep.
- Learn a new trick. With new seasons come new skills. Check out free “how-to” events in your community or sign up for a class you’ve always been interested in. While you’re sharpening your own skills, strengthen your bond with your dog and teach him a new trick, like how to fetch.
