Walking with your dog is not only a form of exercise, it's also a great opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors and create stronger bonds with your faithful friend! Have you ever wondered when and how is the best way to walk with your dog?
Morning walks are key to your dog's wellbeing
While your dog needs to go out several times a day for his basic needs, the main walk, the one everyone looks forward to with excitement, is at its best in the early hours of the morning. Here's why:
1. Easy to make a habit of: starting the day with an early walk is a great way to establish a steady and healthy routine, without the excuses of the tiredness of the day.
2. Prevention of behavioural problems: Dogs that spend a lot of time alone and inactive can develop problems of boredom or anxiety. A morning walk helps them expend energy and feel calmer during the day.
3. Avoid stereotypical behaviour: Stereotypies, such as excessive licking or tail chasing, can be the result of stress. A proper morning walk helps to reduce that stress and keep your dog balanced.
4. Physical and emotional health: your dog needs to relieve itself outdoors to avoid health problems and to communicate naturally with other dogs.
5. Biological rhythms: Most dogs are naturally active in daylight. Respecting these cycles helps to avoid behavioural and health problems.
But what if the walks are not always so pleasant?
If your dog pulls on the lead, is anxious or the walk is stressful, we have the solution for you.
