Dogs have different exercise needs, depending on their age, size, and activity level.

Dogs are more active when they are young and reduce their activity levels as they age.

Puppies under 6 months need regular outings to get active and get familiar with the outside world, but their time out should be limited due to their age and limited physical capacity. They should be short, gentle, and frequent, as they have limited attention spans and need plenty of rest to develop properly.



It is recommended that puppies under 6 months old go outside every 2 to 3 hours, about 10 to 15 minutes for the youngest. These outings should be primarily focused on socializing and discovering the environment.

Dogs aged 6 months to 2 years have to go for a walk for 1 to 2 hours a day. After 2 years and until they are 7 years old, Count daily walks of 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Dogs over the age of 7 tend to have lower exercise needs, but it's important to allow them to stay active to maintain their overall health.

It is also important to take into account Médor's activity level. Dogs that are naturally more active need more exercise than dogs that are quieter and less likely to move.

Working dog breeds, like German shepherds and retrievers, tend to have greater exercise needs than quieter breeds, like pugs and bichon frises.

Walking should not be your dog's only exercise.
Dogs require a variety of activities to maintain their physical and mental health. Play sessions with interactive toys, walks in new and challenging places can help keep Medor happy and healthy.

By knowing your dog's needs, you can provide them with the exercise they need to maintain their health and well-being.
