FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 49:22 Healthy Holiday Treats for Dogs



Labrador Lesson for 12-9-22:

Healthy Holiday Treats for Dogs.

The Holiday Season is a time of treats…as Labradors, we’re happy to eat anything that crosses our path, but we acknowledge that certain “human” foods are poisonous to dogs. So we’re reminding you to do your homework on which foods are unsafe for us (like chocolate and onions); please keep those foods out of our reach.

Want to give us a holiday treat? Healthy dog treats, like those from @portlandpetfood are always a great option. If you want to share human food with us, please check with your vet (or a reputable website), then experiment with dog-safe fruits and veggies. We love pumpkin, snap peas, green beans, blueberries, and bananas (to name a few).

Whether you have 2 legs or 4, we hope you have a happy holiday season that includes movement and healthy treats!

FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 48:22 Make Time for Your Pets During the Holiday Season




Labrador Lesson for 12-2-22:

Make Time for Your Pets During the Holiday Season.

The Holiday Season is a busy time, often full of schedule disruptions…not good news for your pets, who like routines. Remember: your pets are not accoutrements, ready to be trotted out for photo ops. Your pets (especially your dogs), want to be around their humans. Remember to make them part of your holiday season.

Whether you have 2 legs or 4, make time for friends and family this holiday season. Make time to move, rest, AND Play.

FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 47:22 Happy Thanksgiving




Labrador Lesson for 11-24-22:

Happy Thanksgiving!

Three things we’re thankful for as Labradors: 1) Cooler weather for trail hikes with less risk of overheating or tick encounters; 2) regular walks with our humans; and 3) the chance that the humans will drop pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling) on the floor during Thanksgiving prep

Whether you have 2 legs or 4, take a moment today (and every day) to appreciate the positive things in your life. We wish you a happy, healthy, safe, movement-filled Thanksgiving!

FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 46:22 National Hiking Day Safety Tips



Labrador Lesson for 11-17-22:

Safety tips for National Hiking Day.

As Labradors, we don’t need an excuse like #nationalhikingday to get outside for a walk/hike/run…but because it IS National Hiking Day, here are 3 tips to help keep your 4-legged friends safe when you take us for a hike. 1) Keep us on a leash so that we don’t eat anything or chase anything that might hurt us. 2) Don’t overwork us. We get it. Temps are cooler; you’re ready to crush it! But take time to condition us for longer hikes. 3) Check our paws before and after hikes for signs of wear or injuries.

Whether you have 2 legs or 4, get outside and get moving. Don’t wait for next year’s National Hiking Day to #takeahike
