Summary
Details

There are many dog breeds that excel in certain sports and/or activities. Did you ever wonder what a particular dog was bred to do and what sport they may be great at?

This guide will help you start your search for the dog that will fit the activity level you are looking for before adopting - or for the dog that is already a part of your family. It will then list body types, arthritic precautions and activities or sports that you and your dog will excel at based on the breed type.

There is a wide variety of canine/human sports to choose from, but there are also many things to consider before making that choice.

The first thing to think about is the purpose: fun, exercise or competition? If you already own a dog, you will want to find an activity that fits BOTH of you.

You may think, well I am just going to get my dog into Flyball, so why worry about me? YOU have to have the patience and skill to teach him.
