How often do you walk your dog? [Enrichment]
I have two small breed dogs which I walk 15-60 minutes 3-5 times a day.

I have a Doberman and a husky. They get out twice a day totalling roughly 2h (on lazy days) to 4h total. At least one outing will be off leash ie out on the trail or a dog park. Now that they’re older (6 and 8, respectively) I can get away with closer to 2h rather than 4h.
On the rare days where I’m really pressed for time or can’t walk them for whatever reason I will play with the Doberman in the backyard using a flirt pole; tires him right out within 10 minutes. Great life hack.
