Fit Tip – Dogs and yoga?

Yoga mats, that is!

Preventing sliding, skidding and potential falls inside your home is an important consideration for large breeds and dogs that are recovering from surgery or injury, have arthritis, or are geriatric.

An effective way to secure your flooring without resorting to having your dog wear booties or ripping up slick floors for carpet, is to lay down yoga mats.
The sticky surface provides traction and is harmless to your floors. Mats are easy to relocate and fold up quickly for cleaning & entertaining.


This is a cheaper alternative to throw rugs which often times can create an even more hazardous “carpet ride” for your pooch.
