How much exercise does my dog need?
The amount of exercise your dog needs depends on several factors, including their age, breed, and overall health. Generally, dogs require a minimum of 30 minutes to 2 hours of exercise every day. Puppies and young dogs have higher energy levels and may need more playtime and walks compared to older and less active dogs. Larger breeds often require more exercise to burn off excess energy and maintain a healthy weight. Conversely, smaller breeds might be content with shorter, regular walks. Regular exercise is essential for dogs to prevent obesity, reduce behavioral issues, and keep them mentally stimulated. It's important to consult with your veterinarian to determine the appropriate exercise routine for your specific dog, taking into account their individual needs and limitations.
