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:
Be Patient with New Movement Buddies.
Abbie the Black Lab joined the FitLab team around 1 month ago. There has been a bit of frustration during the first month of walks because Abbie is not an experienced trail dog. But with time, patience, and practice, Abbie is adapting to our movement routine. Whether your movement team members are human or canine, be patient during the learning curve.
Move more. Move often. Be patient with new team members.
LabLessons from FitLab Deep Creek:
Please, Don’t Sneak Up on Us.
The Labs know their human staff tries hard to be aware of their surroundings during trail hikes. Occasionally, the Labs distract the humans by eating inappropriate items on the trail (sticks, acorns, etc…). For that reason, the Labs would like to remind all trail users to give notice when passing others from behind. “Sneaking” up on people might scare them off the trail!
Move more. Move often. Give notice when approaching other trail users from behind. Do your part to help all trail users enjoy their experience.

Our Movement Tips: Consistency is the Key & Use Movement for Stress Management
LabLessons from FitLab Deep Creek:
Make Time for Fun.
The Labs know humans have responsibilities other than caring for their dogs…they don’t UNDERSTAND…but they KNOW. They also know that, as Labradors, they are responsible for reminding the humans to make time for fun. Even on busy days, they encourage us to get outside for a walk in the woods.
Move more. Move often. Get outside. Make time for fun.
FitDeepCreek promotes #movementisalifestyle with weekly movement tips & a Labrador Lesson. This week we got caught up with life, but we kept moving and the Labradors- Pudding & Abbie stayed on task with their sole responsibility- a Lab Lesson: Be Aware of Your Surroundings (a good idea whether you have 2 or 4 legs!!)
LabLessons from FitLab Deep Creek:
Be Aware of Your Surroundings.
As we’re training Abbie the Black Lab to be a responsible trail dog, we are especially conscious of our surroundings on the trails. We stay alert for other trail users (human and animal). When possible, we step off the trail to allow other users to pass…because not everyone wants a close encounter with an energetic lab.
Move more. Move often. Be willing to yield. Share the trail.
