Dog walking rules

Dog Walk

 

It would seem, why are grueling marathons needed when you can take the dog out to any bush for a minute and return to daily business? However, the satisfaction of physiological needs is a superficial minimum.

Dog walking rules will keep your pet in good shape. It is healthy contact with other four-legged animals and a positive effect on your emotional bond with your dog. Add minimization of the risk of obesity and an adequate nervous system - and your dog is healthy

and happy with life!

 

Why do dogs need walks?

 

A dog, like a man, needs a society for harmonious development. And the society itself is a dog. This is how your pet sees and learns new forms of behavior, signals of reconciliation and enmity, and also learns about hierarchy.

It's up to you to choose when to walk the dog in the morning. It's worth planning your walk so that both of you feel comfortable, and you don't have to insert at 4 or 5 in the morning. The main thing is to keep the regimen and take the dog outside at approximately the same time every day.

 

Productive walks involve emotional and physical stress so that the dog does not get bored and sad during the day. These are active games and training: static and dynamic teams.

Walking depends on the season. What is the best way to walk the dog in winter? Instead of long and slow walking, it is better to practice active running for 15-30 minutes. And make sure that the dog does not sit for a long time and does not lie in the snow.



 

How many times and for how long should you walk the dog?

 

The dog's standard daily routine is to walk twice a day, morning and evening. But in case of problems with the urinary or nervous systems, it is possible three to four times.

How long to walk with a puppy 3 months? It is desirable often, every 2-3 hours, because they are still small and are just learning to go to the toilet on the street. In walking the puppies, the regimen is important, then over time you can increase the intervals between walks to 6 hours or more.

How many times a day to walk with a puppy 6 months old? 3-4 times a day up to one hour. But at your request, it can be longer. However, if you do not always have the opportunity to follow the regime, it is better to immediately accustom you to a specific duration of the walk.

 

How often and how much you need to walk the dog depends on the breed, age and temperament:

  • 1.5-2 hours for small breeds, dogs of age and with a calm disposition
  • 3-4 hours for juveniles and hunting breeds
  • large breeds need more stress and active walking in nature (forest, park, field) to maintain muscle tone
  • half an hour is enough for a morning walk
  • a few hour walk in the evening is important.

How does walking affect your diet?

 

When planning your walking schedule, it is important to remember when to feed your dog: before or after the walk. With puppies, it is most often recommended to wait 20-30 minutes after eating in order to gradually train them to use the toilet outside.

An adult animal should not be overfeeded before an active walk, because this can cause problems with the gastrointestinal tract. It is best to give dry dog ​​food after a walk after 30-50 minutes. If the dog has eaten before walking, the walk should be calm and short-term.

Does the character of the pet change after castration and neutering?

Image
  "After castration and sterilization, cats and dogs become calmer, stop marking their territory and pester their owners with shouts!" We think you have heard this statement more than once. But how true is it? Is it true that the procedure changes behavior and character? Let's take a look at this in our article The procedure is different. How is castration different from sterilization? Many people use these words interchangeably, but they are different procedures. It is important to understand the difference between castration and sterilization, because these procedures have different degrees of effect on the body. Sterilization deprives pets of the opportunity to reproduce, but preserves the reproductive organs (in whole or in part). During this procedure, females have their fallopian tubes tied or the uterus removed, leaving the ovaries behind. In cats, the spermatic cord is tied and the testes remain in place. Castration is also ...

How to punish a cat correctly?

  Did the cat interfere with your sleep at night again? Shouted at 5 am? Have you marked the corners? For the ninth time, knocked a flowerpot off the windowsill and placed a pile in the middle of the kitchen when you were already late for work? Which of the following do you think require punishment? Should a cat be punished at all ? And if so, how? About this in our article.   Why are cats being mischievous? Cats have lived side by side with humans for almost 10,000 years. But they still remain a mystery to us: we absolutely do not understand many of their habits. We tend to explain them from a human point of view and endow cats with our views and motives. But this does not work, and sometimes it is harmful.   The main thing that needs to be understood for every owner is that cats never do anything on purpose to annoy us.   A cat can "play pranks" when it is bad, painful, uncomfortable, exciting, or when it is influenced by instincts inherent in nature....

Rescue dogs on the water and in the mountains

Image
  If the French firefighters released a full calendar of heroes, then there would be strong, beautiful and hardy, but not only males, but rescue dogs. They work alongside a person during events of different levels of danger. A keen sense of smell allows you to feel a traveler under a snow block after an avalanche, strong muscles - to pull a person who is drowning out of the water, as well as squeeze into narrow manholes during blockages or fires, when time passes for minutes and it is necessary, rather than sooner to locate victims and cast a vote. Search dogs are more effective than humans during rescue operations. However, it is the person who helps to reveal their heroic potential. After all, the savior is not just a proud title, but a series of requirements that a four-legged volunteer must meet: resistance to stress (the dog works in far from peaceful conditions and should focus on its task without panic and unnecessary movements) lack ...
