THE DOG’S REAR END FITNESS EXERCISES

A split image showing two different scenes of a dog. On the left, a brown and white dog runs up an inclined plank outdoors as part of an agility course. On the right, a black, white, and brown dog stands on an orange balance disc inside a brightly lit room with green and yellow walls. The text "THE DOG'S REAR END" is overlaid at the bottom center of the image. The image appears to be related to canine exercise or physical therapy.
