Join our Weekly Wag: A New Years
Resolution to Bond with Fido

by Carrie Boyko, CEB
Motivation has arrived! Once a week I'll share an activity--sometimes indoor, sometimes outdoor--that you can do to bond with your dog. You can find the find the first installment at the link above. Some will work Fido's mind, while others will keep his body active and agile. The cool part is that you'll be working right along side him, taking the lead, coaching, encouraging, and most of all enjoying some one-on-one time with your best friend.


It will only take a few minutes to do the activity once. You can continue with it to become more proficient if you find it useful. The activities are designed to work mind, body and the dog/owner bond. Join me every Saturday for the Weekly Wag, and watch your relationship flourish.


Care to join the Weekly Wag Group? Add your name to the linky below so we can all help one another stay motivated, ask questions, and perhaps just get a few tips--via Twitter. Follow one another. Add the badge to your  blog, if you're a blogger, and you get an extra entry in the prize drawing. Prizes? Read on....


Once you've joined the group, here's what you get:
  • A Quarterly prize will be drawn from the names of those who check in at this post with an update at the end of March, June, September and December. You can find this post by clicking the badge in the sidebar. Check in is simple--just tell me how it's going. Which types of "Wags" do you enjoy the most? Do you look forward to more outdoor or indoor "Wags". Is your bond with Fido growing?
  • One grand prize will go to the winner of a year-end drawing. 
  • Post about the Weekly Wag only if the spirit moves you. Post anywhere on social media--Blog, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, etc. There is no requirement to do so. However, if you do post, leave a comment here with the post link and you'll get an extra entry for the quarterly and grand prizes.
  • Finally, be sure to let me know with a comment that you have added the badge to your blog, and include your blog url. After all, we all want to come and see! Grab the code from the sidebar.
Weekly Wag ButtonI'm excited about this regular opportunity to bond with Tanner and Oliver, and to hear about how you are bonding with your dog. If you have problems with any of the "Wags", just modify them to suit you and your dog. It's all about fun and bonding, not perfection. Finally, if you have questions or need help, drop me a DM via @AllThingsDog or an email to AllThingsDogBlog@gmail.com. I'll do what I can to help. I look forward to many happy Wags this year!

UPDATE for 2013: With the popularity of The Weekly Wag, this regular Saturday post has been extended into 2013. While the sign up form below is closed, you can enter our quarterly giveaways for 2013 by simply commenting on any Weekly Wag post during the year. Drawings will be held April 1, July 1, October 1 and January 1, 2014. Enjoy!

  1. Scroll to the bottom of these instructions and find the blue lettering that says "Click here to enter". If you do not see these words, simply click on the post title to refresh the page, and they will appear below these instructions. Good luck!
  2. Click the blue link and a new screen will open.
