Did you walk your yorkie today??? I'm about to log off :eek: so that I can take Ginger for a walk. I try to walk her 2 x's each day, but sometimes don't manage. It got me thinking...how often and for how long do you walk your yorkie??? |
I have really started making a comittment to walk my 2 twice a day...once in the morning right when they wake up before I get ready for work, and once in the evening. I really want to stick to it for their sake. They really love those walks! |
That's what I try to do. Of course that am walk falls apart in the winter when it's still dark when I'm supposed to be getting ready! |
Lol, I haven't walked Zoey in a week! She's too busy playing with my dad in the yard. :) |
i try to walk gracie right before it gets dark b/c it is just too hott over here the heat index today was 100 something and all that humidity she plays in the house more! |
:D I love the walk as much as he does,once at 8:30am before work and then he gets dropped of at my mom's who babysits and she sits outside with him thru out the day. I'm lucky to have her watch him for me ,and then I take him for a walk in the park down the street with his doggy friend who lives next door to my mom's house....then he is ready to go home and he sleeps,like he's the one who works hard.......doggy day care is RUFF...LOL LOL:) |
I can't walk Peeka yet cause he's to little but i can't wait untill i can |
Usually around the block once or twice a day. |
Twice a day! In the morning we walk two miles at about 6 or 6:30 a.m. In the late evening, we take a shorter walk. P.S. She wakes me up in the morning for her walk.:D |
I try and walk Cali and Maya each day for a mile, but I end up carrying my 12 lb Pom all the way back and lately Cali wants to be carried. So I ordered a stroller! |
Chizzie and I are going for our training loose lead walking right after dinner :) |

I just ordered a stroller too! I always said I would never do it... But I recently broke my arm and it is hard to carry 2 Yorkie's, no matter how little they are. Chloe does outings with me many times a week. Sissy goes only twice or so. I am waiting on delivery of my stroller and hoping it is here before Sunday. We are going to our first Yorkie Meet Up on Sunday afternoon:aimeeyork X15 or 20!! I walk mine only once a day (they are learning to walk on the double lead)and that walk is only if they didn't go to work that day. If they went to work, they've walked enough at work, then going to the yard with me once a day is enough and we sit on the front porch at night. Sitting out their seems to be the happiest time for them after a full day at work. Just like 2 little old lady's, they sit at the end and watch everyone on the block and see what they're doing. Nothing gets past them!:p Now if you asked how many times a day would "they" like to walk... Then in that case we would never stop walking, my girls are confused and think they are outside dogs!!!! |
My little ones get walked three times a day. But, not farther than 1/4 of a mile. I don't think their little legs or hearts could take much more than that with the heat and all... :rolleyes: |
During the week we go for a short walk in the morning before work and then when I get home we walk about a mile. In the winter I only take them out in the evening if it's not too cold and bundle them up in tshirts and coats :) They love to play in the snow!! |
Oh goll-- I am horrible! (Don't tell Keeley that your babies are going twice! He'd never forgive me!) We go on "designated walks" about 1-2 times a week. We do go to the park and play (under the shade of the trees) quite often and I make sure to play with him indoors. For exercise. But it has been SO dang hot here. After a few laps around the apartment complex he is so over heated it makes me nervous. Now that fall is coming we'll be walking a lot more. |
