As dogs grow out of their puppy years and into middle age, more and more are turning to yoga as a way to stay limber. Naturally, two of the most popular yoga poses are the downward dog (left) and its less-common variant, the upward dog.
Yoga for Dogs
These two puppers look as though they’ve really found inner peace.
I wonder if I can study with them…
Yoga Doggie Style. Wait. What?
Hey man, up dog is really a thing. One of my DVDs has a bit called “up dog / down dog flow.”
I sent this video link to Mike earlier, so you might see it again. Benji, the dog from Yoga with Adriene, rounds up people from the neighborhood to vote. Note the downward and upward dog at the beginning!

OMG this is adorable. I love Benji so much. And now I need to get back to yoga. (Last video I did he was laying with his feet on the corner of the her mat. Didn’t care what she was doing.)
And he gets a tortilla chip at the end…Texas state snack (I guess he can’t have the salsa)!
