hi
lily is a 5 month old rottweiler and wondered how much excercise she can have. i take her out for 15 mins in the mornign before work and then she gets about 30 mins on the park at about 5 ish. and sometimes my daughter takes her for a 10 min walk on a evening.
is this too much or ok
cheers
steve

i would say that sounds fab. I think the general rule is 5 minutes per month the dog is. :thumbup:

large dogs can damage there legs if there over exercised as pups so i think what your doing is fine whilst your dog is still young and its bones are still growing etc. Some can over do it and it can cause probs later.

:thumbup::thumbup:To me, that sounds quite perfect. That's how we did it too and our Tanya is a very strong, fit and happy dog, she is old now and not to well so we have gone back to that routine. Good job you are doing x
