Importance of hiring a Dog Walker for Dog Owners in Port Washington

As dog lovers we know how important it is to give your dog daily exercise.  The AVMA (American Veterinary Medical Association) recommends that dogs get an average of 40 minutes of exercise per day.  If you live in Port Washington, 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 Pet Care comes in. Exercise isn’t the only benefit from walking your dog around your Port Washington neighborhood.  Studies show that with only three 30 minute walks per week you can help lower dog’s weight by 15%!

Beyond physical exercise, walks can provide a lot of mental stimulation.  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
