Re: How much exercise does your dog get?

Don't know which category to choose! Our dogs all have different needs so they are all exercised for different lengths of time. The bergies and the pup are walked once, for about an hour in total. Evie is walked twice - about 2 hours in total. As Quinn gets older, we'll gradually increase his walks until he is having the same as Evie. In addition, they have access to the garden for the biggest part of the day - my OH works nights so that our animals almost always have one of us in with them.

Re: How much exercise does your dog get?

Im a dog walker and Izzy comes with me to every walk so she gets about 5-6hours exercise during the day, then another walk on an evening, usually a swim. The more she gets, the more she can take! She's super fit

Re: How much exercise does your dog get?

We generally take the girls to the park for between 1 - 2 hours every day , they also have access to the garden all day too , with the evenings being lighter now i guess they may even get another walk later in the evening when its cooled down .

Re: How much exercise does your dog get?

On average Duke gets in excess of 2 hours per day. On sunny days like the past few I take him out when its cooler.

He also has access to the garden, most of the time (not necessarily all day).

He also has his mad half hour or so where he will tear round the house like a lunatic, I must admit I encourage him, it helps to burn off excess energy, Duke benefits too.

Re: How much exercise does your dog get?

Toots only gets about half an hour to an hour walking a day - any more than this and she plonks her bum down and I have to carry her she has access to the garden most of the day too but doesnt really bother going out unless I do. Apart from that she sleeps mostly

Re: How much exercise does your dog get?

Mine have access to the garden all day and until bed time now the better weather is here as I leave the patio doors open - and they are taken out for walks, paddles, swims etc for about 2 hours apart from the 8 monther who gets less obviously

Re: How much exercise does your dog get?

Milo gets a minimum of 2 hours off lead walking a day, pups at least an hour. They all have access to the garden pretty much all day.
