The Workout Pal Who Never Lets You Down
The Workout Pal Who Never Lets You Down
Looking for the perfect fitness buddy? Your best friend may not always be available, but man's best friend never says no to a little exercise and that's not just because dogs can't talk.
Most dogs enjoy (and need) exercise and look forward to it as part of their otherwise leisurely daily routine. Depending on the breed, most dogs need about 45 minutes to an hour and a half of exercise each day, says Grisha Stewart, a certified Seattlebased dog trainer. "It's much better for the dog to be jogging along or walking along than just fetching," Stewart says. "Running can calm them down more." And those exercise benefits don't just extend to your pup. "If you're walking briskly, it also can help you stay in shape."
There's a lot of evidence to support Stewart's claim. Having a pet can encourage owners to be more active, according to findings from a University of MissouriColumbia study. Research participants walked with a dog on a regular, graduated schedule for a year until they were up to walking 20 minutes a day, five days a week. By the end, the weight loss was nothing to bark at a solid average of 14 pounds per person.
In another study, obese people who tried losing weight with their overweight dogs lost an average of 11 pounds in one year, while the dogs lost about 16 percent of their body weight. The study, conducted by Northwestern Memorial Hospital's Wellness Institute, cited the companionship, motivation, and social support dogs provide as key in helping owners slim down.
"When you make a commitment to your dog, it creates a commitment to yourself," says Nancy Clark, a certified pet dog trainer and member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers. "It's a 'have to.' You have to get out and exercise that dog; therefore, you get the exercise yourself."
Almost any dog will be a good walking companion, but you could also try different activities, based on your dog's breed. And don't worry if you don't have a pooch of your own; loaner dogs can be found in cities ranging from Maui, HI, to Beaver Creek, CO. Shepherds, especially, are easy to train and have been bred to feel most fulfilled when they have a job to perform (like herding livestock or protecting children), so they'll love being your official jogging partner. Other large dogs that need lots of exercise to remain healthy are great to take for a run or even rollerblading; small dogs are usually better suited to short walks.
And remember: If you get a dog that likes to run, you should like to run. Whatever dog you have, though, make sure he likes water and never force him to swim every dog is different, even those that are considered born swimmers. For extra safety precautions in case a dog panics in deep water, invest in a doggy life jacket. They look much like the life vest humans wear, and they can be purchased for around $20 to $50.
Yoga: Beagle, Jack Russell terriers, bloodhounds
Believe it or not, dogs can do yoga called "doga" for the canine set. Gyms in cities across the country, from New York to Los Angeles, offer classes for flexible pets and their owners. According to Brenda Bryan, who teaches a class in Seattle called Yoga with Your Dog, yogis and dogis love stretching alongside one another. "For dogs, it's a really nice opportunity to spend time with their person," she says. "For the people, yoga is, in general, a nice way to get to know your own body."
And in the same way that yoga is relaxing for humans, canines also take time to calm down and destress. "Almost all the dogs mellow out, even the dogs that seem to be a little bit more rowdy," Bryan says. "For anyone, dog or human, you're relaxing for an hour; you're spending time in a positive environment. It certainly can't hurt."Practically any dog will enjoy a good hike in the great outdoors, but the ideal ones to take along will easily be able to maneuver obstacles and will have enough stamina to keep up. Clark recommends "bigger dogs that aren't running on their short little legs, trying to keep up with you." Not everyone is a fan of Fido on the trails, though, so make sure your dog is wellbehaved and always on a leash. Sound intimidating? It's actually a relatively easy sport to pick up. "All you need are some crosscountry skis and a harness, and you're good to go," says Tren Long, president of the Bogus Skijoring Club in Boise, ID. Skijoring has been popular in Alaska for years, and it's recently had a surge in popularity in the Lower 48. Participants in this sport say the dogs love it. "My dog goes nuts," Long attests. "In the winter, if I leave the house without taking her, she'll give me that pouty face."
And you can make the workout as easy or as challenging as you like. Start with flat ground and a short distance. If you really want to get your blood pumping, try hills and breaking your own trail. Northern breeds such as huskies like to pull and can handle the cold, but many dogs as long as they're at least 35 pounds and are able to comfortably pull you can be trained for this sport on an amateur level.

Interpol to bolster security at Brazil Olympic Games
International police organization
Interpol will reinforce security at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro,
Brazil, according to an agreement it reached Wednesday with the Rio 2016
Organizing Committee, both agencies said.
Interpol will help back up Brazil's security forces mainly through its database, which contains information on stolen or lost vehicles, DNA samples and wanted criminals, among other things.
The organizing committee considers Interpol's help crucial given the magnitude of the event and the arrival of thousands of people of different nationalities.
"The agreement calls for the support of the intelligence services in the fight against any action that could affect the integrity of sports," the director of security for the event, Luiz Fernando Correa, said.
"The agreement, even though it is three years before the event, will begin to be put into effect for the trial events," he added.
The agreement also calls for Interpol to aid Brazil combat criminal activity linked to major sporting events, by training personnel and collaborating in the fight against illegal games, forgery and contraband goods.
Interpol Secretary General Ronald Noble affirmed that protecting large-scale sporting events that draw millions of visitors "is an immense challenge for any country and Interpol is ready and willing to cooperate."
"The agreement between Interpol and the Rio 2016 Committee is a fundamental step towards providing the most extensive support possible to law enforcement for the sporting event," he said.
