This is an interesting thread. I take Franklin and Maggie out for a long walk in the mornings, before it gets hot. Then we go out every 2-3 hours for potty time and we're usually out for 5-10 minutes. Lately Franklin has been a terror ("terrible twos") so I've been taking him on long walks in the middle of the day to tire him out. I wonder if this is too harmful? He usually comes back in, drinks some water and lays down on the cold tile. Then 5 minutes later he's up and full of energy again. Sheesh! |
