Sounds ridiculous but it gives him just enough... all he needs is a good 30-45 minute walk to come home and he's just calm and relaxed, he goes over and chows down on his dry food, and sleeps good for the night. Weekends we sometimes do 4 mile walks. When we go to the dog park, we stay for usually 1-2 hours and comes home and just totally chill and well behaved. Exercise makes for a happy and tired dog! |
