I, or one of my kids, walk my big dogs every day..my westie and my poodle, but even my westie gets tired after about a mile so I sometimes take the yorkies in a stroller, but we go to the small dog park two or three times a week. I have a big single story house on an acre so there is lots of room for yorkies to run inside (long hallways) and out on the covered patios. I am terrified of the birds of prey and coyotes in my neighborhood. We do have an 11 acre village green where we take the yorkies to run on a leash and they go to the dog beach on the weekends.
My yorkies love being outside, especially Ava, so even though they don't really go on long walks, I make sure they get out side several times a day either in the covered courtyards or the backyard on a leash. |
