How much exercise is appropriate for a dog?

The health of dogs is not only related to diet, but also has an absolute relationship with the appropriate amount of activity. Especially in dogs after the age of eight, the problems of the whole body will gradually emerge. If you maintain an appropriate amount of exercise, you can activate the muscles, ligaments, joints and bones of the whole body, and can also stimulate the blood circulation of the digestive tract and maintain the normal and stable digestive tract. It works to avoid gas, indigestion, constipation and other problems.


Choose the right amount of exercise based on your dog’s body shape

If you take your dog out every day, let the dog follow the owner’s rhythm, and walking step by step is the best exercise. One can cultivate the relationship between the owner and the dog, and the other is that both people and dogs have enough and moderate amount of exercise. If it is a large dog, it needs more exercise every day, and it is more appropriate for family members to take turns to accompany it for a walk several times a day.


How much exercise do dogs need?
It can be calculated according to the following: Under normal circumstances, the indoor dog raised in the city, the adult dog weighing less than 5 kg, walks for about 10 minutes, and the dog weighing about 10 kg should walk for more than 15-20 minutes. Dogs weighing 10-15 kg should walk for more than 25-30 minutes every day. Dogs weighing up to 20 kg should walk for more than 30-50 minutes every day. Dogs weighing 25 kg should walk for at least 60 minutes a day.


Avoid a lot of intense exercise on weekends

Walking the dog should be a daily routine. Don’t let the dog exercise a lot sometimes, and sometimes have no exercise for several days. For various reasons such as going to work, many people have little activity for dogs from Monday to Friday, but do a lot of activities on Saturday or Sunday, even strenuous exercise, which is actually very bad for the health of dogs, especially possible. Can cause many heart, spine, ligament and joint injuries in dogs over the age of six.


    We should thank the dog for coming and change our unchanging way of life. No matter how tired we are or how late we get off work, we should take your dog out for a walk. This is the best time of the day!
