Now more than ever, fitness is important for both dogs and people. The most commonly
recommended exercise to improve fitness is walking. Walking is considered a
safe activity that improves muscular strength, circulation, memory, weight loss,
increases energy, helps with sleep, and reduces stress. The American Heart Association
recommends walking a minimum of 150 minutes per week. Participation
in the AKC FIT DOG program will bring health benefits to both you and your dog. If you walk with your dog on a regular basis, join the ranks of AKC FIT DOG and get your free (5-3/4 inches) FIT DOG logo car magnet. The AKC FIT DOG magnet proudly declares to the world that you are committed to your dog’s health and fitness through regular exercise. |
Welcome to AKC FIT DOG Titles! The American Kennel Club is committed to improving and maintaining the fitness and health of all dogs and their owners. AKC FIT DOG titles were designed to provide a structured, individualized fitness plan that you and your dog can do together. There are 3 levels of AKC fitness titles—Bronze (FITB), Silver (FITS), and Gold (FITG). Each title requires a specific number of activity points to be completed, which varies based on title level. Bronze – 5 Points Silver – 10 Points Gold – 20 Points Within each level, there are 6 categories of activities to choose from to earn your points. AKC FIT DOG titles are noncompetitive, and dog owners may choose different activities to earn titles. |
