How To Practice Yoga With Your Dog

December 6, 2016 By Melanie 2 Comments

yoga-with-dogs-11

If you’re a dog owner and have ever practiced yoga at home, you may have experienced the pure joy and curiosity your dog exudes whenever you’re practicing your asana. My dog Nina, a spunky little Dachshund and Jack Russell Terrier mix, starts wagging her tail uncontrollably the second my mat hits the floor. Maybe it’s because I’m spending time on her “level” or perhaps she secretly finds it amusing to watch me twist myself into various positions. Either way – yoga time is playtime in her mind and you can guarantee that if I’m on my mat, so is she.

I rescued Nina a little over 3 years ago, right around the same time that I started practicing yoga, so she became very acclimated to my daily sessions. For awhile, I just let her bounce on and off my mat – licking my face, pushing me over, and dropping her ball down in front of me at every opportune moment. One day I thought to myself, how would she react if I genuinely included her in my practice?

No, I didn’t train my dog to do yoga poses on her own. Instead, I seized each time on my mat as an opportunity to further bond with her by incorporating her into various yoga poses that I was already doing.

There were definitely a few hiccups a long the way (like that one time I almost fell on her while in headstand – sorry, Nina!) but over time it has become a great way to establish trust and to get more in tune with how my dog is feeling. I learned the dos and don’ts pretty quickly and now enjoy a lovely doga practice with Nina at least once a week.

If you’re looking to start practicing yoga with your dog, here are a few basic poses to get you started! Please keep in mind that Nina weighs about 16 pounds so the following poses are meant for a dog of similar or smaller size.

Boat Pose

This is one of Nina’s favorites and is something that we can stay in for at least a full 60 seconds.

Place your dog on your lap with their head facing you. Bring their front paws up so they rest on your shoulders or chest. Slowly lean back while bringing your knees up. Engage your core and control your breath. Encourage your dog by talking sweetly and maybe even waving your hands above them so they have something to look at.

Knees To Chest Pose

yoga-with-dogs-knees-to-chest-pose yoga-with-dogs-nina

This pose will test your dog’s balance. The key is to keep very still and encourage your dog to lie down on your legs.

While lying on your back, pick up your dog and place them on your chest. From there slowly bring your knees towards your head and gently pick up your dog and let them settle on your shins, facing you. Keep your hands on their sides until your dog is comfortable and balanced. Stay here for 10 full breaths and then release your legs slowly down.

Easy Pose

If your pup is a lap dog they’ll love this yoga pose. I usually do this at the beginning or end of my practice and stay in it for as long as Nina allows.

Find a comfortable seated position with your legs crossed in front of you. No need to do full lotus, but if it’s in your practice feel free. Encourage your dog to come sit on your lap and just spend a few minutes giving them a nice petting session. With any luck they’ll doze right off.

yoga with your dog

Now that you’re ready to start doing yoga with your dog, keep in mind that it may take a few tries before your pup feels comfortable in these postures. I recommend keeping treats on hand; encourage them and know when enough is enough. Dogs are like little babies – it’s important to read their body language and know when you should probably just play fetch with them instead of forcing them to balance on your legs. 😉  As you can see, Nina was eyeing one of her fav toys and after this shot took the opportunity to pounce on it.

If you snap any photos trying yoga with your dog (or cat) please tag me! I love seeing pics of people bonding with their fur babies.

Namaste,

It is up to us to make our lives beautiful 🌸

The small joys are found in the mundane mornings, the unexpected laughter, the people who feel like sunshine 

The beauty of life is not that it’s perfect. It’s that every day you wake up with a new opportunity to grow, heal, love and find gratitude through it all 💕🦋

Let me introduce the easiest, most whimsical fairy
Let me introduce the easiest, most whimsical fairy garden cupcakes (aka lemon blueberry 🫐🍋) that are perfect for your next summer gathering 

I told you all that I’m trying to channel more of the “Martha Stewart Summer” vibes this season — taking things slower, enjoying moments in my garden, hosting friends and leaning into cozy hobbies like baking 

I admittedly am not a baker, so this recipe was the perfect blend of “semi-homemade” and turned out so yummy and beautiful 🌸🦋! I jazzed up a box of white cake mix with lemon zest & juice before whipping up a homemade cream cheese frosting and topping with edible flowers & butterfly wafers 

If you want to make them for yourself just comment “FAIRY” and I’ll send you a link with the recipe I referred too! ✨

I’m on a journey to find joy in movement again because ever since having a baby, I’ve been looking at working out as something I “have” to do instead of something I “enjoy” doing… and that mindset has put in me in quite a rut. Not to mention your girl is TIRED over here 😅 

So from here on out, I’m committing to romanticizing my workout routine. Because sometimes the little joys can be found in the small things like:

✨putting on a cute matching set 
✨making a fancy electrolyte drink in an obnoxiously sized tumbler 
✨putting on a fun playlist to get hyped before the class 
✨treating yourself to a silly little coffee drink after 

And truly after the whole workout routine is over, even if I don’t feel as strong in a reformer Pilates class as I did pre-pregnancy, I always feel extra proud that I made the time for myself. 👏🏻

I read a quote that said “𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘧𝘶𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘳, 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦’𝘴 𝘢 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 30 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘦𝘹𝘢𝘤𝘵 𝘢𝘨𝘦, 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘸, 𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘶𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘳 2025” 

And wow does that help put things into perspective right? 

If you’re looking for ways to spend less time scrolling and more time living — here are 10 activities to help romanticize all the joy that summer time has to offer 

✨Take an outdoor yoga class 
✨Have a picnic with friends 
✨Create a (physical) summer vision board 
✨Plan a beach or lake day 
✨Host friends for a backyard bbq 
✨Read a romance novel by the pool 
✨Peruse the farmers market 
✨Do something you loved to do as a kid 
✨Go for sunset walks or hikes in nature 
✨Treat yourself to ice cream or s’mores 

The good old days are happening right now, so let’s make it a summer goal to be so in the moment that we forget to check our phones 💕

Sharing a different kind of #SelfCare Session with you all because it seriously did wonders for my self confidence and I am here to spill the tea!! 💛

I felt like pregnancy and postpartum aged me so quickly and the stress + lack of sleep + inflammation definitely manifested in the skin on my face looking ROUGH. I was seeing more fine lines, sun spots, redness and enlarged pores than ever before (that second photo has me feeling so exposed 🙈)

So when @laseredbykaitlyn reached out to tell me about Moxi and BBL laser treatments, I was immediately interested. I had heard great things about them before and although I was a bit skeptical at first, I knew it was worth a try 

Swipe through to see the whole journey from two sessions at @alluvionaesthetics — one round of just Moxi and one round of Moxi & BBL together. 

I am sooo beyond happy with the results and my skin looks so much healthier, younger and refreshed! I wanted to share with you all in case any of you are struggling with similar skin issues 💛✨

Let me know if you have any q’s!
