Fairfax, Virginia (forpressrelease) March 6, 2020 - Paw Pals Pet Sitting LLC, a Fairfax dog walking company, recently released a guide for new puppy owners answering the question, "how often should I walk my puppy?". The post begins by providing a feeding timeline for puppies' first year of life, and then subsequently goes on to explain how much a puppy should be fed after 6-12 weeks, 3-6 months and 6-12 months. It also describes exactly how much food you should feed them at each of these points.
The post notes that large-breed puppies especially should not be forced to exercise too much, as this could lead to bone and joint problems, as well as orthopedic diseases. For example, a three-month-old dog should not be walking more than two miles on a given day.
A dog's breed is also a big factor in determining how much exercise a puppy regularly needs. For example, border collies typically have greater endurance than bulldogs and are more likely to spend time outside because they tolerate heat significantly more. If you are still unsure or have little knowledge about how much time does a dog needs to exercise exactly, you can refer to Well Pet.
Puppies should also not be forced to jump or perform any other similar activity that requires more strength than walking until they are fully grown. Toy breeds ? like Chihuahuas, Spaniels and Affenpinschers ? mature much faster than large breeds but usually need to be fed often and in small doses throughout the day. German Shepherds, for instance, require more mental stimulation than many other breeds. Training sessions also must be incorporated into dogs' daily routines in some cases, as well as daily naps.
