However, some people, because of their family and personal life, don’t have the best schedule to take their dog out daily for 2 hours, so you might as well try to change your habits by taking your dog out 3 times a week for example, to start with… On weekends or on your days off, take the opportunity to go for a 30 minute walk around your home or discover the surrounding area for a pleasant stroll. Once the rhythm is established, go from 3 times a week to 4 maybe? And this will be a great step forward for your dog who will thank you for it.
