If you have a dog, you’ll know that playing, fetching, swimming and walks are the highlights of their day.  But did you know that some forms of exercise can cause injuries, shorten your dog’s lifespan, and even cause organ damage or cancer?

In this episode, Dr. Dobias outlines safe exercise for your dog, how much exercise is OK, and what activities to avoid. He also describes how to examine your dog’s spine for injury, pain and discomfort, and discusses the top 6 commonly missed causes of disease in canines.
