Exercises for dogs. Exercising your dog. Exercise with dogs.<\/h3>\n

In my previous article “Diet for Dogs – Dog Food and Home Made Dog Food<\/a>“, I have shared with you the process and little techniques I use to prepare meals for dogs<\/b>. When you will read my previous article you will find that I invest a little bit more time and effort in feeding dogs than most common dog owners. But this practice is common amongst professional breeders. We tend to provide more to our dogs. That\u2019s because of my personal belief to provide them the best that I can afford. Also, home prepared meals are more appealing to dogs because of different varieties of flavor and smell accommodated in these meals. This provides you a wide variety of options to test what is best suited for your pet pooch. But, I admit that this requires a great deal of pre planning, time and efforts to prepare these types of meals. As you can easily imagine that with my method of preparations good amount of proteins are supplied along with hefty amounts of fats and carbohydrates. To digest all this it is essential that I provide necessary exercise to them. Also according to breed, I vary the amount of feed provided and exercise given. As stated in my previous article I take them for morning running and then in evening for playtime.<\/p>\n

Specifically speaking this is not playtime for every dog. I provide breed specific training for a little physical stimulation but much more focused on providing mental stimulation to check any tendency for aggression and destructive behavior.<\/p>\n

In this article, I will provide a general overview of what it is like to get 7 dogs, of 4 different breeds to get proper exercise, without over pressurizing and over stressing their muscles and mind.<\/b><\/p>\n

Okay, so let\u2019s start.<\/p>\n

First golden rule:<\/b> Running is always the best form of exercise that owners can provide to their dogs. (Same is true for us humans also; easily available and cheapest form of exercise is running).<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Though the duration and intensity of running are dependent upon various factors. These are.<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Breed of dog.<\/li>\n
  2. Age of dog.<\/li>\n
  3. Sex of dog.<\/li>\n
  4. The personal capacity of the dog.<\/li>\n
  5. The physical condition of the dog.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I will explain these points one at a time.<\/p>\n

    Dog breed: <\/b><\/p>\n

    To begin with, let us take the breed factor first, how does it influence the duration and intensity of the exercise. For some reasons it is obvious that we have to vary exercise according to the physical limits of the breed, we are dealing with. You just cannot expect a Chihuahua to run like a Grey Hound. Isn\u2019t it? Well, I started this just for fun, don\u2019t mean it or expect it literally. Now, this is a very debatable question that even if we provide selective exercise according to breed, does it apply to every individual of the same breed? <\/b><\/p>\n

    The answer is \u201c No\u201d.<\/p>\n

    No, you cannot give the same amount of exercise to every individual of the same breed. This depends on many things. Let me elaborate. The stamina of every individual depends on his history of sports, physical endurance and longevity of practice, proper diet, nutrition supplied also plays an important role in determining the amount of stress and work one’s muscles can handle. This fact is equally true in case of dogs, also.<\/p>\n
