Canicross is cross-country running with your dog. It is a popular sport in Europe and the U.K. It was originally intended to provide sledding dogs with summer exercise and training but has turned into a global sport with world championship titles. Canicross is a very unique sport. Instead of just running with your dog, you run with your dog tethered to you by a special bungee type leash and harness that allows them to get full range of motion in their shoulders. The idea is that instead of pulling a sled, your dog pulls you. It is a great sport for those that love running, trails, and the great outdoors.Â
What is a K9 dog? K9 or K-9 dogs are police and military dogs. K9 is a homophone for the word canine – clever right?! K9 dogs were made famous by Doctor Who and Looney Tunes cartoons. German Shepherds are the most common K9 dog breed but there are other suitable breeds too. These pups play a major role in many police and military operations, which use them to search for people and things (e.g., suspects and drugs), rescue people, detect explosives, and respond to people in distress, like in a fire. It is amazing what these dogs can do! Training begins as a puppy and when these super-heroes retire, some of them are adoptable! Sound interesting? Read on!
What is Disc Dog? Disc Dog is an exciting, entertaining, and fast-paced sport that pups and their humans can do together. It is a very competitive sport. Titles are won. International competitions take place every year and the sport draws big crowds. If your dog is trainable, can jump and catch a frisbee and learn trick jumps, this might be just the sport you both need!
You know those zoomies your fur baby gets in the evening? The ones where they start running around for no reason and want to play? That is excess energy they are trying to burn off. Looking for a way to help them burn it off that doesn’t include jumping on furniture and knocking over everything in their path? Enter running. Running is an excellent way for your pup to use up that energy and relieve tension and anxiety. A regular running routine can help your pet maintain a healthy weight, with the added benefit of keeping them fit. And it might be good for you too! So, we rounded up a top ten list of the fastest canine breeds. There are a lot of lists of the fastest dog breeds and they are all a little different. These are just our favorites. Take a look!
What is Dog Agility? Dog agility is a competitive sport where you (the handler) direct your dog (the competitor) through an obstacle course. The goal for your dog is to get through the obstacles with speed and accuracy. Obstacles include tunnels, bar jumps and tire jumps, ramps, hoops, weave poles, seesaws, and pause tables. The catch is that you can’t touch your dog or the obstacles. You have to rely on your voice, movements and signals to get your dog through the obstacle course. And, you can’t give your dog treats or toys to motivate a certain action or speed. This is a serious sport! Sound like something you and your pup may want to try? Read on!
Dog Dock Diving is a fairly new sport, when compared to Dog Surfing or Dog Flyball.  But, it is wildly popular so it is definitely worthy of consideration for any fast, high-jumping canine who likes water. Dog Dock Diving allows dogs to show off their ability to jump off a dock using speed and agility in order to gain distance, height, or retrieve a favorite toy to return to their handler in record time. It is definitely not a sport for water-weary pups. Read on to see some great videos of dock diving pups in action!

If your dog is a runner, jumper, leaper, and furry bundle of joy around other dogs then Dog Flyball may be the perfect sport for them. Does your dog like to play fetch?

Ok, maybe not the world but a dog can dream. Curious? Read on!
