Different from stray dogs and stray dogs, the range of activities of many pet dogs is almost confined to indoors or in the yard, and there is not enough space for exercise. We all know that moderate exercise is helpful to dogs' physical and mental health, and the amount of exercise varies among dogs of different sizes. The daily exercise time of small dogs is controlled at about 15 minutes, that of medium dogs is about 30 minutes, and that of large dogs is about 1 hour.

Avoid a lot of strenuous exercise on weekends: Exercise should be carried out every day, and when absolutely necessary, you can interrupt for some time. Some dogs have little activity from Monday to Friday, but their owners take them to do a lot of activities or even strenuous exercise on Saturday or Sunday. In fact, this is very bad, especially for dogs over six years old, which may cause heart, spine, ligament diseases and joint injuries. Walking, following the pace of the owner's sneakers and walking step by step is the best exercise. First, it can cultivate the relationship between the owner and the dog. Second, both people and dogs have enough and moderate exercise. If it is a large dog, it needs more daily walking. It is more appropriate for the family to take turns to accompany it for a walk several times a day. It is a very bad way to force a dog to run at a speed of more than 20 kilometers per hour by using a motorcycle to pull the leash on the dog collar with one hand, especially when the dog is over four years old, it is easy to cause heart damage.

Husky (introduction to details)

When people and dogs are over the prime of life, they shouldn't do anything to make their heartbeat and breathing move very fast and for a long time. When breathing and heartbeat are maintained for several minutes or more, it is easy to cause myocardial hypoxia and hypoxia in many tissues of the whole body. For example, a person usually walks at a speed of about six kilometers an hour, and his heartbeat and breathing won't be too strenuous. When he changes to jogging, his calorie consumption will increase by about 60%, but his myocardial oxygen consumption will increase by two to three times.

Therefore, for middle-aged dogs and people, the only advantage of running is to increase the calorie consumption in a limited time. However, the purpose of exercise is not to consume calories, but to promote the health of blood circulation, muscles, ligaments, joints and internal organs. So it's important to choose the amount of exercise suitable for your dog's age.
