| Exercise How much exercise does your pup get? Sassafras doesn't know how to go for walks with the leash yet, so her exercise is just running and playing in the house. Since the bee sting incident I haven't let her back outside unless I am holding her. Should she be going for daily walks? |

| Depends on what exrecize the pup gets in the house, but I think walks are also good. Most dogs can walk on a leash after a few tries, and it is the first step to a well-trained babe. Never too early to start. |

| Rockie is 6 months and I just recently let him go up and down our pretty long driveway outside. I'm like you, I was very caution about the fleas epidemic But he's doing fine up and down our driveway; can't catch him. |

| Madeleine loves walks and could go forever, but we have recently had an issue with ticks so now I am leery about taking long walks since I don't know where the ticks are coming from

| Sass eats everything thing in her path - rocks, leaves, grass, trash - she isn't picky at all. She is so much quicker than I am and has all kinds of things in her mouth before I can get her when I bring her outside. I hope it's just a puppy thing and as she gets older she will stop eating everything. |

| I take Cody James for walks around my apartment in the morning lunch and evening. sometimes we just do morning and evening and go around 2 or 3 times. and then we wind down by letting him play outside. so i think he gets a lot |

| Deiter and Cozmo love walks we try and walk at least 3 times a day. Which by the end of the day it is usally about 3 miles total. Plus they play in the house when we are all up here together. And only if Cozmo goes potty first.
