  • Brain Boosting Activities for Dogs Use It Or Lose It
    Brain boosting activities for dogs Use it or lose it Just like us, our dogs need to exercise their brain as well as their body. Not using the brain enough can affect our dogs' cognitive functions and problem-solving skills. This is why physical exercise on its own is not enough. You, as a responsible dog owner, also need to provide mental stimulation for your dog. Most physical exercise also includes mental stimulation in the form of new smells and sights. However, additional mental stimulation is recommended to boost your dog's cognitive function and slow down the neurological (brain) signs of aging. Playing, learning new tricks, socializing, solving puzzles, exploring new territories are all excellent ways to boost your dog’s brain activities. It is important to start early on. Puppies are like babies. Their brain develops very fast during their first few months of life. The more mental stimulation they get, during those first crucial months, the better. Research has shown that using mentally stimulating toys for puppies reduces their risk of developing Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CDS) later in life. 2 | P a g e It is however never too late to start exercising your dog’s brain. You can indeed 'teach an old dog new tricks'. It just takes longer. But it can still be as fun and rewarding for you and your dog. Even dogs suffering from CDS can benefit from learning new tasks (has been shown to improve their learning ability and memory). The five recommended brain boosting activities include physical exercise, physical training, mental training, playing games and using mentally stimulating toys.

    Regulations for Agility Trials Amended to October 1, 2015 Published by The American Kennel Club Revisions to the Regulations for Agility Trials Effective February 1, 2016 This insert is issued as a supplement to the Regulations for Agility Trials Amended to October 1, 2015 Chapter 15 – Regulations for Agility Course Test (ACT) Section 1. Purpose. The Agility Course Test (ACT) is an entry level agility event to introduce beginning dogs and handlers to the sport of agility and the AKC agility program. Section 2. ACT Event. There are two levels of ACT events – ACT1 and ACT2. ACT 1 is designed for the beginning level dog to show beginning sequencing and performance skills. ACT2 requires an increased skill level shown by the additional obstacles to be performed. Section 3. Eligibility of Dogs. All dogs fifteen (15) months of age or older may enter a test. Dogs must be physically sound as described in Chapter 1, Section 3, Paragraph 7 of the Regulations for Agility Trials. In order to acquire the title certificate and have the title added to a dog’s record, the dog must be registered/listed with the AKC. Canine Partner applications may be accepted at the test by the judge/evaluator and submitted with test results. Dogs that are not AKC registered/listed may participate and their performance will be recorded by the AKC under a temporary recording number. This temporary recording number will be e-mailed to the owner and must be used when entering subsequent ACT events and when the owner registers/lists the dog. Note: Temporary recording numbers may only be used to enter ACT events.
