‘Walk Your Dog Week’ Promotes the Importance of Regular Walks
Regular walks benefit both owners and pets

October 1st marks the beginning of “Walk Your Dog Week” - an annual celebration to promote regular dog-walking.
Lidia Vesterfelt from Michigan Humane joined “Live in the D” to share some of the benefits for both dogs and pet parents.
Lidia was accompanied by a 2-year-old cat named Prince.
Lidia encourages pet-parents to get out there and walk their dogs. Walking your dog is a great way to stay physically active as well as provide a mental break, giving you a chance to go outside. Additionally, it strengthens the bond between you and your pet and can become a social event.

If you are interested in adopting Prince, our sponsor the Mike Morse Law Firm will pay the standard adoption fees.
