With
people taking their dogs to restaurants, to dog-friendly resorts and to dog
masseurs, it was probably only a matter of time before dog yoga, or
"doga," classes came around the bend.
At
Morris K9 Campus in Randolph, N.J., mellow sitar music fills the air as several
dog owners stretch, flex and practice deep breathing with their pooches by
their sides. But the dogs are not just passive observers, the New
Jersey Star-Ledger reports: Yogis also encourage the animals to
perform moves like back stretches and (of course) downward dog.
The
pups in this yoga
class are noticeably quiet and well behaved. "He shuts off in
every doga class, and he's super high-energy" normally, Robin Lash, a
trainer at Morris K9 Campus, told the Star-Ledger, referring to her border
collie, Gabriel.
