Why is it important to keep your dog active ?
Physcial stimulation is very important for the well-being of our 4-legged friends. Active dogs tend to live longer and happier life. Regular and frequent walks allow dogs to get the routine that is very needed in order to be emocionally stable and have a better understanding of their environment.
How many times per day and how long should the walks be ?
The duration and frequency of the walks depend on the age and size of your dog. Every dog should get at least 2/3 walks per day and be allowed to spend some time off leash, playing with other dogs and be able to sniff around and stimulate their brain. The smaller breeds tend to enjoy shorter and more frequent walks due to their smaller bladder size. Respectively bigger breeds enjoy longer walks while they can run, play fetch and get rid of excess of energy.
