Most physical therapists agree that they include balance, strength, endurance and flexibility. The same characteristics apply to canine athletes as well and form the basis of this new book by Sasha Foster, co-author of the award winning The Healthy Way to Stretch Your Dog. When the four conditioning components are executed in a systematic approach using the key exercise principles of frequency, intensity and duration, you can train your dog to reach his fullest potential in whatever canine sport or activity you choose to participate in and help keep him fitter and more injury-free over a longer period of time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYou will learn: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHow to test your dog to determine what level of exercise difficulty he should begin with when starting out a cross training program.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe role of core stabilization and whole-body awareness exercise during balance training.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe use of positive training and shaping techniques to help your dog acclimate himself to the training equipment used in the various exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecommended conditioning programs for various types of activities ranging from dock diving to agility to flyball to therapy dog work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat experts are saying about\u003cem\u003e Canine Cross Training\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSasha Foster combines science and real-life experience to provide the reader with practical guidelines for canine cross training.
