Parkour lessons for dogs

2019-03-08 1

An innovative dog training centre has began offering parkour classes for pooches. Dog parkour is a non-competitive physical activity in which dogs learn to interact with their environment and listen to their owners. Just like in the human version, dog parkour involves conquering obstacles by climbing, balancing, and jumping. According to Sian Ryan, the founder of Developing Dogs, the Cambridgeshire-based centre running the classes, dog parkour gives dogs "a lot of confidence and encourages them to listen to their owners."
