Before getting a dog, you need to be aware that the animal requires a special approach.
Caring for your pet is not just about feeding and regular vaccinations: your pet needs physical activity.
For this reason, such a pet is definitely not suitable for lazy people.
Sometimes we don't even know what our pet's real physical activity needs are.
How to understand that your dog clearly lacks exercise
Bad behavior on a walk
If your dog is actively pulling on the leash and not listening to you, the reason is often that these walks are less frequent than required. Therefore, you should not try to restore discipline right away: experts recommend counting how much you walk.
Then find the activity norm for your breed.
The dog brings the leash
This is a very "transparent hint" that the animal is not satisfied with the level of physical activity that you give it. Therefore, when you see a leash, you should "listen" to your pet and go for a walk.
Strange behavior
If a dog lacks activity and attention, it will start to behave strangely. The dog may start to ruin things in order to occupy itself with something.
The animal will also try to attract attention in any way possible.
Aggression
Some dog breeds, if not given enough activity, may begin to behave quite aggressively towards their fellow dogs, cats, or even passers-by.
Therefore, it is worth devoting more time to your pet.
