Before getting a dog, the future owner must compare his capabilities with the desires of the pet.
In addition to the fact that you need to walk your dog every day and at least 2 times a day, you need to know how long the walk will last, otherwise problems may arise. Here are some useful tips.
Small and decorative
Such loud breeds as Chihuahuas do not suffer much without a walk, especially in bad weather. They will have enough space to run and jump in the apartment, but the issues with going to the toilet will remain.
Medium and large
In this case, there is no way to avoid daily and exhausting walks in the fresh air.
Weather
In frost and rain, you should not go out for long periods. It is enough to limit yourself to the time that your pet needs to perform its natural needs.
But if the dog is delighted with the snow and frost, you can stay longer.
On fine days, the dog is taken for a walk at least twice a day. In the morning, it can be short, for a warm-up. But in the evening, you will have to compensate for the animal's long sitting locked up, that is, let it run for at least 30-40 minutes.
Character and health
It is recommended to interrupt the walk if the pet is shaking, nervous or not behaving as usual. In this case, it is better to choose quiet and deserted places.
Remember that if you ignore the characteristics and character of your pet, unspent energy can result in aggression and hooliganism.
