doga
n.— «In Seattle, Brenda Bryan specializes in “doga,” or doggie yoga, developing her own technique, known as “barking buddha doga.” Combining hatha yoga—poses include the “woofing warrior one”—with massage and stretching for dog and owner, barking buddha is designed to create “an opportunity to connect in a whole new way” with your dog.» —“In the lap of luxury, dog’s paradise” by Alice Pfeiffer in London, England International Herald Tribune (Paris, France) Nov. 20, 2008.
