Fuel for the frost! ❄️ Did you know that sled dogs burn 20–50% more calories in winter? Their nutrition is key to keeping them strong and ready for any challenge.

Winter brings unique nutritional challenges for working dogs like sled dogs. The cold temperatures and intense activity mean their bodies burn significantly more calories to maintain warmth and perform at their best. Here are the key tips to ensure your dog thrives all winter long:

1️⃣ Boost Calories: Increase their calorie intake by 20–50% to match their energy demands. High-quality fats (30–40% of total calories) are essential for long-lasting energy, while proteins (25–30%) support muscle recovery.
2️⃣ Serve Warm Meals: Cold weather can slow digestion. Slightly warmed meals, like wet food mixed with warm water or broth, are easier to digest and keep your dog comfortable.
3️⃣ Perfect Timing: Offer light, easily digestible meals 2–3 hours before activity. After exercise, feed a nutrient-dense meal within 30 minutes to replenish energy stores.
4️⃣ Stay Hydrated: Dogs drink less in the cold. Warm water or broth can encourage hydration and prevent dehydration.
5️⃣ Add Essential Nutrients: Omega-3s for joint health, zinc and vitamin E for skin and coat, and small amounts of salt to maintain electrolytes during long work sessions.

💡 Example Feeding Schedule for a Sled Dog:

👉Morning: 1/4 of daily portion with added fat, served warm.
👉Pre-Work Snack: A small high-fat treat (e.g., meat or fish).
👉Post-Work Meal: The largest portion of the day, mixed with warm water or broth.
👉Evening: The remaining daily portion, focusing on protein and fat.

With the right nutrition, your sled dog can stay strong, healthy, and ready for every challenge this winter. Monitor their weight, coat, and energy levels regularly to adjust their diet as needed!

Strong backs make powerful sled dogs! 🐾
Hill Pulls are an easy and effective way to build your dog’s back strength and overall stability. Ready to give it a try?

Did you know that a strong back is the foundation for a sled dog’s power and endurance? Hill Pulls are a simple yet highly effective exercise to strengthen your dog’s back muscles, hind legs, and core stability.

Here’s how to get started:
1️⃣ Choose the right hill: Find a gentle slope with soft ground like snow or dirt to protect your dog’s joints.
2️⃣ Optional weight: If your dog is experienced, attach a light weight (like a small tire or weighted sack) to their harness. Start with 5-10% of their body weight.
3️⃣ Warm-up: Take a 5-10 minute walk or jog to prepare your dog’s muscles.
4️⃣ The exercise: Guide your dog to pull the weight or just walk uphill, keeping the movement slow and controlled. Aim for 10-20 meters per repetition.
5️⃣ Cooldown: Finish with a relaxed walk to ease muscle tension.

💡 Pro tip: Start without extra weight if your dog is new to this exercise, and always keep it fun with lots of praise and rewards!

Why this works:
✔️ Strengthens back muscles and hind legs.
✔️ Improves core stability and balance.
✔️ Builds endurance for sledding and other activities.

Fitness isn’t just a goal—it’s a lifestyle you and your dog can share. 🐾 Let’s work together this week to grow stronger, healthier, and happier—one step, one paw at a time!

Fitness is about so much more than just movement—it’s the key to a happier and longer life for both you and your dog.

Whether it’s Canicross, dogsledding, or simple fitness exercises, every shared activity strengthens not only your body but also the bond between you and your four-legged partner.

This week is the perfect time to try something new: maybe a longer run, a new exercise, or simply sticking to a consistent routine.

Remember, fitness isn’t a short-term goal. It’s a lifestyle that makes you and your dog stronger and enriches your life together.

Strong dogs need strong recovery days.

After a week filled with activity and adventure, it’s time to slow down and let your dog recover. Rest days are essential for muscle repair, injury prevention, and preparing for the week ahead. Recovery can include gentle walks, stretching, or even a soothing massage to help your dog relax and recharge.

As a dog fitness trainer, I always remind my clients: fitness isn’t just about pushing harder—it’s about knowing when to pause. Taking the time to rest benefits not just your dog’s body, but also their overall well-being.

Canicross is one of the best ways to strengthen your heart.

An active dog is a happy dog—but only with the right kind of activity!

Balance is key when it comes to your dog’s fitness routine. Overtraining can lead to fatigue or injuries, while too little activity leaves your dog restless and under-stimulated. Finding the sweet spot ensures your dog stays healthy, energized, and engaged.

Incorporate a mix of activities, like strength-building exercises, short sprints, or mental challenges, to keep things interesting. For example, alternating between active days and lighter recovery days helps your dog build stamina and prevent burnout. As a professional dog fitness trainer, I’ve seen how variety and balance create the happiest, healthiest dogs.

Progress starts with small steps—and your dog is ready to take them with you.

Every journey begins with a single step, and building your dog’s fitness is no different. Whether it’s a short run, a new exercise, or simply adding variety to your routine, small, consistent actions lead to big results.

Dogs thrive when they’re challenged physically and mentally, and as their fitness improves, so does their confidence and overall well-being. This week, set a goal—no matter how small—and take the first step toward it. Remember, it’s not about perfection; it’s about progress.

When people say, ‘Dogs just run because they’re told,’ they’ve never seen a sled dog in action.

My sled dogs teach me something new every day. They don’t just run because they have to—they run because they love it. Their excitement at the start line, their focus on the trail, and the way they work together as a team—it’s all pure instinct and passion.

I’ll never forget one winter climb that felt impossible. As we struggled through the snow, Pepper turned his head, as if to say, “We’ve got this.” And she was right.

These moments remind me that sledding isn’t just a sport—it’s about trust, teamwork, and resilience. What’s one lesson your dog has taught you recently?

It started with a reunion, turned into an adventure, and became a lifelong passion

Some moments stay with you forever. Sunshine’s first run with a big sled dog team was one of those moments. I had booked an adventure with Wildspirit, giving Sunshine the chance to reunite with her siblings and run alongside them in the same team. Watching her work as part of that team was mesmerizing—it sparked a passion I never knew I had.

That two-day journey was unforgettable. The connection, the teamwork, and the raw beauty of working with sled dogs changed everything for me. And at the end of it, I brought home Pepper, an 8-week-old ball of potential and energy.

Sunshine, you gave me this gift, and I miss you every single day. But your spirit runs with us, on every trail, in every moment.

Every journey begins with lifting the anchor. It’s the start of trust, teamwork, and trailblazing moments.

This is the moment where everything starts—the anchor lifted, the dogs ready, and the trail ahead full of possibilities. Dogsledding is not just about speed or distance; it’s about the trust between you and your team, the silent communication, and the joy of running together through the wilderness.

The anchor symbolizes the start of every adventure and the confidence to let go and trust your dogs. What does the start of an adventure mean to you?

Winter training is magical, but only when done right! ❄️
Let’s talk about the key mistakes you can avoid to keep your dog safe and strong this season.

Winter training is more than just snow and adventure—it’s about preparation and making smart choices. Let’s talk about three common mistakes that can turn a great session into a stressful one:

❌ Overdoing it in deep snow: Snow adds resistance, making every step harder. Start slow and monitor your dog’s energy levels to prevent exhaustion or injury.

❌ Ignoring hidden dangers: Snow can hide rocks, ice, or branches that might cause harm. Stick to trails you know or scout carefully before your run.

❌ Forgetting recovery time: Cold weather impacts recovery. Schedule regular breaks, provide hydration, and bring something warm for your dog to rest on.

When you address these challenges, winter training becomes a safe and enjoyable experience for you and your dog. 🌟

❓Have you faced any of these issues?

Boost your sled dog’s strength, endurance, and resilience! Here’s how to take their performance to the next level. 🛷💪

Sled dogs are natural athletes, but even they can benefit from a tailored training boost. Adding focused workouts to their regular routine can improve strength, endurance, and resistance to fatigue. Here are three effective exercises to elevate your sled dog’s performance:

➡️ Hill Sprints: Short, powerful sprints uphill build explosive strength in the hind legs and core. Start with 3-5 sprints over a moderate incline and gradually increase as your dog adapts.

➡️ Interval Pull Workouts: Alternate between short, high-resistance pulls (20-30 seconds) and longer, moderate-resistance pulls (2-3 minutes). This trains both power and stamina, making your dog more efficient in varied conditions.

➡️ Weighted Pulls: Incorporate light resistance (like a small sled or tire) over controlled distances. This strengthens key muscle groups for sledding while improving pulling technique.

💡 Expert Tips for Safe and Effective Training:

1️⃣ Warm-Up & Cool Down: Always begin with a light jog to warm up muscles and joints. End sessions with a cooldown, including light stretches or massage, to support recovery.

2️⃣ Monitor Your Dog: Watch for signs of fatigue, discomfort, or altered gait. Adjust intensity or take breaks as needed.

3️⃣ Include Mobility Exercises: Stretching and flexibility exercises keep your dog’s muscles supple, preventing stiffness and injuries from repetitive motion.

Adding these workouts to your sled dog’s regular training creates a true performance edge. Strength, endurance, and resilience don’t just happen—they’re built step by step, sprint by sprint.

From nervous beginnings to thrilling rides – my first Dogsledding adventure changed everything. 🛷❄️

I’ll always cherish the memory of my very first dog sledding adventure. It was 2020, and it was just me, Pepper, and Sunshine—my two incredible Alaskan Huskies, full of energy and spirit.

We were new to it all, learning the commands, figuring out the rhythm, and trusting each other on the snowy trails. I remember the thrill of that first glide across the snow, the sound of the sled runners, and the sight of Pepper and Sunshine working as a perfect team. They were unstoppable, and their determination inspired me to give my all.

Sadly, Sunshine is no longer with us—she left us in 2023. But her spirit remains a part of every adventure we take. Her memory reminds me of how much joy and connection dog sledding brings, not just to us but to the dogs who thrive on it.

Dog sledding isn’t just a sport; it’s a bond, a journey, and a shared passion. Starting this journey in 2020 changed my perspective and strengthened my relationship with my dogs. I’ll always be grateful to Pepper and Sunshine for starting me on this path.

❤️ In sync, in stride ❤️

90% of Canicrossers say they feel a deeper connection with their dogs through running. And I couldn’t agree more.

Every run is about trust, teamwork, and achieving something together.

It’s not just exercise—it’s building a partnership for life.

January Photo Dump 📸🐾 The first month of the year is already behind us, and it was all about movement—on snow, ice, and solid ground! ❄️🏃‍♀️ While I had to log some treadmill miles, the dogs got their workouts the best way possible—out in nature, running, jumping, and staying fit! 🐕💪 From strength and mobility training to frozen trail runs and recovery days, January had it all.

‘Walking my dog twice a day is more than enough exercise.’ Let’s talk about why that might not be true.👇 Walking your dog twice a day is a great start, but it’s not always enough to meet their full physical and mental needs—especially for active breeds. Dogs thrive on variety and purposeful activities that challenge both their bodies and minds. Structured fitness routines, like interval runs, strength-building exercises, or even learning new commands, go beyond the basics of a walk. Walking is important—but it’s only one piece of the puzzle. 👉 What’s your dog’s favorite activity outside of walking?

Fitness isn’t about what your dog can do—it’s about what they can become🐾💪 When people tell me: ‚My dog gets enough exercise running around the yard,‘ I have to ask—does running in circles build strength? Improve coordination? Prevent injuries? Fitness training is more than movement—it’s intentional. It’s about giving your dog the tools to live their happiest, healthiest life. Backyard zoomies are fun, but they’re no substitute for structured fitness. Let’s give our dogs the best we can, starting today. What’s your take on this?

Jumps – Only for Young Dogs? There’s a common belief that jumping exercises are unsuitable for older dogs. But that’s simply not true. Controlled jump training – tailored to a dog’s age, fitness, and abilities – can be incredibly beneficial. It strengthens muscles, improves mobility, and stabilizes joints. The key is proper technique and a structured training plan that challenges your dog without overloading them. And the best part? Controlled jumping exercises are fun for dogs of all ages! Do you have a dog that could benefit from targeted jump training? Let me know – I’d be happy to help you design a safe and effective workout. #dogfitness #fitdog #dog #caninefitness #dogtraining #dogsofinstagram #workingdog #dogfitnesstraining #dogfitnesstips #fitdogsofinstagram #k9fitness #fitness #fitdogs #canineconditioning #workingdogs #fatdogsarenthealthy #doglife #caninehealthandfitness #dogfitnesstraining #fitnessdog #endfatdogtrend #caninehealth

November with Paws4Motion – Grateful for Every Moment 🍂🐾 November was all about staying active and enjoying the outdoors – just the way we like it. Here’s what I’m especially thankful for: 🐕 Shared kilometers running together, building an even stronger bond with my dogs. 🌲 Freerunning adventures – while the dogs roamed the forest, I enjoyed some peaceful solo miles. 🏞️ Memorable hikes – from easy trails to more challenging paths, all in crisp autumn air. ❄️ The first sledding runs – winter is just around the corner, and we’re ready for more. I hope your November was just as active and filled with special moments with your dogs. Here’s to an equally wonderful December! 💛 #activedog #activedogs #workingdogs #fitdogs #dogfitness #pawsinmotion #healthydogs #happydogs

At 43, I started running. At 44, I ran my first trail marathon. At 45, I crossed the finish line of my first ultramarathon. How did I make it happen? Discipline, determination—and Canicross.

🌿 This is freedom 🌿 When I run with my dogs, it’s the only time I feel truly free. Free from stress. Free from worry. Free from everything. Canicross is so much more than just running with your dog—it’s a bond, an escape, and a way to reconnect with yourself and nature. Every step we take together, every pull of the harness, every moment in sync, reminds me why I started. It’s not just about the physical benefits (though there are many); it’s about the mental release and the joy of sharing this incredible experience with my best friends on four paws. If you’re looking for something to free your mind and strengthen your bond with your dog, Canicross might be the answer. It’s changed and saved my life, and I hope it can do the same for you.
