TOP HEALTH BENEFITS FOR DOG WALKING.

1. Mental Wellbeing - Dogs were not made to sit around all day long and do nothing. They are intelligent animals with keen senses, By taking your dog out of his /her property on a daily basis you are giving him an opportunity to use there senses and to engage there mind

2. Reduction in behavioural problems - Digging, destructive chewing and barking can all occur as a result of boredom. The dog has nothing else to do and so turns to the only available activities in the home. Once a dog knows he can count on a daily walk he will usually stop trying to find other undesirable things to do while he is at home.

3. Physical wellbeing - A fit and healthy dog is a beautiful sight. Their muscles are strong and their bodies are sleek. To stay fit and strong, lungs and muscles need to be exercised on a regular basis. Many dogs suffer from health problems simply because they are overweight - heart problems, breathing difficulties and joint pain are the most common. Even 20 minutes of brisk exercise (a steady walk) can go a long way to keeping weight under control.

4. Longevity - Because dogs that get regular exercise are fitter and healthier than those that don’t, they usually live longer. As joints weaken with age it is extremely important to keep muscles as strong as possible so that they can support the joints and enable the dog to continue to get around for as long as possible. Moderate daily exercise helps enormously in this regard.
