Importance of Dog Walks for Dog Owners in Greenpoint
As dog lovers we know how important it is to give your dog daily exercise. The AVMA recommends that dogs get an average of 40 minutes of exercise per day. If you live in Greenpoint, you probably walk your dog as often as you can but who is walking your dog when you are at work or on vacation? This is where Dan’s Dog Walking and Pet Sitting comes in. Exercise in’t the only benefit from walking your dog around your Greenpoint neighborhood. Studies show that with only 3 30 minute walks per week you can help lower dogs weight by 15%.
Beyond physical exercise, walks can provide a lot of mental activity. Taking “scent walks” are an excellent way to keep your dog mentally engaged and stimulated while you’re out. Scent walks basically prioritize letting your dog thoroughly sniff interesting smells that get their attention instead of reaching a certain destination as quickly as possible. Taking your dog to a new park or trail can spice things up, expose them to some brand new scents, and keep them mentally engaged.
To summarize remember the following
Dogs need at least 40 minutes of daily exercise
Daily walks can help reduce a dogs weight by 15%
Scent walks help to stimulate your dog mentally
Increased exercise will result in better behavior
Exercise helps reduce anxiety
