My Border Collie Doesn't Stretch: A Mobility Guide for Runners

Product Information

He always sniffs around on walks and takes an interest, but when he does actually pee he doesn't actually sniff around he just does the stretch described by a few. It is possible that your dog has an injury that is becoming chronic, a strain or a sprain, or a ligament injury.

Then, when needed, the dog was released and worked very hard until a given job was done, or when done practicing. After a walk or playing in the yard, make sure your dog’s breathing has slowed and their temperature has dropped before giving them food and water.
