Two careers devoted to helping children thrive.

Fitness DAWGS was created by Dr. Addie Briggs, a pediatrician, and Dr. Kim Evans, an educator and former school superintendent. Between medicine and education, both have spent their professional lives focused on the health, development and success of children.

 

That experience shaped every Fitness DAWGS story: important health and wellness concepts presented in a way that is informative, age-appropriate and easy for young children to understand.
