Obesity is a significant issue in both the human and animal populations. There are numerous factors that contribute to its prevalence, including improper diet, environment, genetics, and various metabolic diseases. The best way to measure the amount of fat cover on an animal is through Body Condition Scoring. This gives a point of comparison between animals, and indicates how far away from optimum fat coverage an animal is. Many of the health issues that occur as a result of obesity in animals can be extremely costly and prevented through proper diet and exercise. Examples of these conditions include diabetes, osteoarthritis, and coronary heart disease. One of the best options for getting proper exercise is by going to dog parks. This setting creates a unique social community where people communicate their ideas and are able to talk with individuals who may be able to motivate others to exercise. In order to address this issue, we set up an event at a dog park where our group members spoke about the issues involved with obesity, and tried showing them the fun that their dogs would have at the dog park. The psychological phenomenon that occurs when people communicate with one another at dog parks is explored in this paper, and explains how this is no different that the forms of social media like Facebook or Twitter. This will hopefully foster the proper health and fitness attitude, and help it spread through the community.
