Did you know some dogs can run at speeds of up to 45 km/h?
Breeds built for speed, like Greyhounds, Whippets, and Border Collies, are capable of incredibly fast bursts of running thanks to their powerful muscles, flexible spines, and long strides.
Running helps dogs:
🐾 burn energy
🐾 stay mentally stimulated
🐾 express natural instincts and behaviours
That’s why regular exercise and opportunities to safely run and play are so important for many dogs. And honestly… sometimes the zoomies make a lot more sense after learning this 😅
