Walking on the beach is a such good exercise for our dachshunds. The resistance the sand offers our long-bodied hot dogs is great for working the leg and back muscles, but safer than trudging up steep inclines or doing stairs. It’s also a nice alternate between hiking and neighborhood trots. Keeping our wiener dogs lean is instrumental in keeping them healthy and happy.

I had to laugh looking at these photos as all I see in the sand are precious paw prints…the paw prints our doxies leave on our hearts ❤
well said, Joy!! my 2 love to run on the beach. I just wish we lived close enough that it could be a regular thing.
