    Episode #8 Canine Water Safety and Sports with Rhonda Danyluk

    Extreme heat has affected much of Western North America since late June, and we are still seeing temperatures over 30 degrees.  Thoughts of swimming, boating and stand up paddle boarding with our dogs have never been more prevalent.  Sporty Pups talks with Canine Fitness and SUP Trainer Rhonda Danyluk about what we need to know, and what we can do with our pups at home, before heading to the nearest body of water.
