Whether it is a dog or a human, it requires proper exercise. Ordinary dogs are born to be very active and active. For example, Border Collies have a lot of daily activity compared to ordinary dogs. So what should you pay attention to if you want to exercise to make your dog healthier?

First, you should exercise appropriately every day. The amount of exercise varies depending on the breed, age and individual of the dog. For example, small dogs should exercise 3 to 4 kilometers per day, while fast-speed hunting dogs should run about 16 kilometers per day. Some small dogs, such as Chihuahuas and Pekingese, are small. If they are allowed to walk far away every day, they will often affect their hearts due to excessive exercise. Walking freely at home every day is enough to exercise.

Second. When going out for exercise, you should wear a traction belt. Especially in urban streets, do not neglect to loosen your belt and let it wander freely to prevent being hit by a car or disturbing pedestrians, or fighting when other dogs meet. The tying of a dog with a dog should not be too tight or too loose. Too tight will affect breathing, and too loose will easily fall off, so it is better to have a certain degree of freedom.

Third. Change the route of exercise regularly. Do not only follow the same fixed route every day. During exercise, it should be prevented from smelling other excrement or other objects left behind with its nose, and do not let the dogs come into contact with it. Do not place the dogs in places where people or other dogs gather to prevent certain diseases.

Fourth, under a safe ring mirror, you can give some glue toys made of plastic to play freely or lead them to run.

Fifth, for working dogs such as hunting dogs or police dogs, swimming exercises in summer are good whole-body exercises, which can make the dog's physical development evenly. But it should be noted that dogs should not be placed in too wide waters, and dogs should also be avoided from entering waters in poor water quality.

In short, dogs have various forms of exercise and can be selected according to different purposes. Generally, dogs mainly exercise health care, while dogs should undergo special performance exercises. After returning from the exercise. Drink enough clean water, wipe the whole body with a towel, and brush it off. Do not feed immediately after exercise, and should rest quietly for at least 30 minutes, otherwise vomiting will occur.
