7 Reasons to Walk Your Dog

Most dogs require at least one daily walk, while some, especially active dogs, may need more. How long and vigorously you should walk your dog depends on its breed, age, and degree of fitness. Even while you undoubtedly take your pet for walks at the very least so it can go potty, you might not have considered the health benefits of exercise for your dog.
