A
walk around the block or a 15 minute romp in the backyard several times a day is
minimal exercise and is NOT enough to meet the average dog's needs. Active
breeds such as dogs from the sporting, herding, hound and terrier groups,
northern breeds and any mixture of these ( i.e. the vast majority of pet dogs )
and virtually all adolescents require much, much more exercise!!! However, a few
dogs (not breed specific) do require very little exercise to maintain good
health and will derive little benefit from a Dog Trotter. Like people, all
people need exercise, some require more exercise than others to maintain good
health. Always consult your veterinarian before you begin a new exercise program
for your dog.
