How Often You Should Walk Your Dog?
Did you know that over half of the dogs in the U.S are overweight or obese according to the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention?!
That's worse than the human population!
That number should be a big wake up call if you are not already walking your dog!
So, how often should you be walking them & for how long?
A great number to start out with is 30 minutes per day. Depending on the size or breed of the dog, they may need up to 60 minutes!
Now I know that seems like a long time, but you could treat that as your exercise as well.
Maybe you get up to walk or run in the morning. Take your dog next time & see how they do!
They may be out of shape, so start off with short increments. These walks can also be used as potty time for most dogs. Take them out to do their business and smells all of the wonderful smells of the world. Not only will you not have to worry about them going in the house, but you will also keep them healthy!
