Kids and K-9s is partnering with Heart Smart Kids, a web-based program for the "early detection and prevention of childhood obesity and cardiovascular risks." Participants in the Kids and K-9s program will report on their nutrition and exercise habits in addition to regularly measuring their height, weight, and blood pressure. Through our partnership with the Heart Smart Kids organization, Kids and K-9s can better track participant information in a safe and secure manner, in order to quantify the health benefits of the program and dog ownership. It is our hope that this information will also enlighten participants about their health status and motivate them to stay on a course of healthy living.


The HeartPrint - given to all Kids and K-9s participants at the end of the program with their specific information.

The HeartPrint printout consists of two pages: the first is the actual HeartPrint (below) and the second is our Recommedations Page. The recommendations page is designed to give a few easy-to-follow suggestions for improving overall cardiovascular health.
