FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 40:24 Stay Safe in Dangerous Weather

LabLessons from FitLab Deep Creek:

Stay Safe in Dangerous Weather.

We don’t use weather as an excuse to stay inside…unless the weather poses a safety risk. Flooding, lightning, and high wind warnings ARE valid reasons to alter your movement plans. Last week we skipped a walk due to high winds. Based on the number of fallen trees we saw the next day, we made the right choice! But a rainy day (without flooding risk) won’t keep the Labs (or their staff) inside. The Labs encourage you to make movement part of your lifestyle…but put safety first.

Move more. Move often. Stay safe when dangerous weather comes your way.

FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 38:24 Why Do We Have Dogs?

LabLessons from FitLab Deep Creek:

Why do we have dogs?

People have asked us: why do we have dogs? Here are three semi-serious reasons why. 1. The Labs keep us moving…even when less-than-ideal weather makes us want to stay home. 2. They keep us humble. Picking up dog poop is an excellent reminder that the world doesn’t revolve around us. 3. No matter how bad our day is going, the Labs think we’re great…as long as we remember to feed them.

Move more. Move often. Move with dogs.

FitLabPGH Lab Lessons 37:24 Why Do the Labs Walk on Leash?

LabLessons from FitLab Deep Creek:

Why do we walk the Labs on leash?

We hear this question a lot: why do we keep the Labs on leash when we hike in the woods? Here are three reasons why (one a bit less serious than the others). 1. The Labs are concerned Ben will wander off and get lost…then who would feed them? 2. The Labs make bad decisions. It’s not hard to imagine them chasing a rabbit, skunk, porcupine, or deer off the trail, and we want to keep the dogs safe. 3. The Labs, and their humans, are rule followers at heart. Almost everywhere we hike requires dogs to be leashed.

Move more. Move often. Follow the leash laws when you move outside with dogs.

Have a Happy, Safe Labor Day.

Fall is coming, but that doesn’t mean warm weather is finished for the year. Keep your dogs safe on those warm September days. Take breaks. Give them water. Slow down as needed. Stay safe today, so that you and your canine companions can keep moving safely through the Fall.

Move more. Move often. The Labs wish you a happy, safe, movement-filled day.

LabLessons from FitLab Deep Creek:

Celebrate New Experiences…

Even if those experiences aren’t new to you. Abbie recently visited “Dog Rock” in Deep Creek Lake State Park. While Dog Rock is nothing new to the rest of the team, it was an exciting adventure for Abbie, and we took time to enjoy the experience with her. Remember, what is “old hat” to you may be an exciting first for one of your movement buddies. Embrace their joy.

Move more. Move often. Celebrate “new” experiences.
