We walk Mitzi (9 years) at least 4 times a week for about 30 minutes or as long as she likes to walk. Mostly we walk much longer and she gets carried after a while. She has some problems with her left knee, so she doesn't like to walk everyday. Best indicator is to ask her if she wants to go for walkies. Jumps around - she loves to! Vanishes in her favorite closet - she doesn't. Don't tell me Yorkies can't talk!
When we go for a longer hike we take a baby papoose with us and Mitzi loves to sit in it on my husbands chest. Talk about attention! We also put her in there when we go for bike rides and she can never get enough of that. |
