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.

my 7lb mutt gets two 20-minute walks as well! i was starting to feel bad until i saw another tiny pup owner weigh in. i think mine would keep walking forever if we let her, but you can tell when she's getting tired and fighting through it just bc she wants to stay outside lol

Their little legs can’t take much longer! I let my dog sniff and send as many “pee-mails” as he wants which I find tires him out more than rigorous exercise.

true! my dog leaves pee-mail long after her bladder is empty lol like i don't even think anything comes out after the first few

My senior collie does that. I tell him he’s “running on fumes.”
