If your dog has too much energy, is bouncing off the walls or is constantly getting himself into trouble, there could be a simple solution - exercise. A tired dog is a well mannered dog and all dogs need some form of cardio exercise regularly to keep fit - both mentally and physically. When dogs are not stimulated through exercise, they tend to get bored. And when boredom set, the bad behavior starts. While pets are exercising, one concern is that they may wander and become lost. However, thanks to recent advances in technology, there are GPS dog tracking devices available that provide detailed information about pet whereabouts at all times. Before starting any exercise routine, make sure to take your dog to vet and get his/her opinion to start exercising. There are some breeds of dogs that cannot handle heavy cardio (such as short-nosed dogs like pugs and bulldogs), and extra care should be taken for these breeds. Also, keep your dog's age and weight into account before deciding on the type of workout. The climate is an important factor in deciding whether to take your dog outdoors or opt for some form of indoors exercise. There are tips to remember when exercising in very hot or very cold, so ask your vet for help. Different exercise options you can consider include fetching, playing Frisbee games, swimming and even cycling (your dog can run alongside while you ride). The most popular form of exercise for dogs, however, is walking or running. With walking and running, you can choose the place, location and intensity of training, and you can get a workout with your dog. Always start slowly and let your dog used to the new routine. Especially if you're dog is overweight, he will need some time to adapt. With a pet tracking collar, you can let your pets explore without having to worry that they are lost or go missing. Tracking dog collars i.e. SpotLight GPS Pet Locator let you set specific safe places or areas where your dog can roam freely. These could include areas in your local park or neighborhood. If your dog leaves one of these safe places, you will be notified immediately by text or email. The pet tracking device will give instructions on how to get to your dog. Thus, your dog can get workout and you are assured of his safety and security at all times. This article is authored by Chris Newton from Securus, Inc.
