We all know that raising dogs requires trying to walk the dog every day to help them consume energy, but many people do not know that there are some precautions for walking dogs, such as the following points must be avoided.

1. Using the wrong collar

Don't forget that the ancestors of dogs were social animals. So walking a dog is not only about letting the puppies go to the bathroom and exercise, but also providing them with opportunities and time to socialize. If your dog has shown no sign of attack since childhood, they can be encouraged to interact and play with other puppies. This is extremely important for their mental health. Even if they don’t play together and just stop to say hello to other dogs or parents, it is also a way of socializing.

4. The dog's time to walk is too short or too long

Each dog has unique breed, age and personality. Therefore, the time for walking the dog should also vary from dog to dog. Young dogs need more exercise time, nervous and anxious dogs need more patience and guidance, and dogs with breathing problems need to avoid excessive temperatures. Some parents will ask their puppies to go home after going to the bathroom, which will be too short. Of course, walking the dog for too long is also an over-consuming consumption of the dog.

Under normal circumstances, dog walking should be at least 20 to 30 minutes, about 2 to 3 times a day. When encountering extremely hot or extremely cold weather, the time needs to be appropriately shortened.

5. Walk the dog immediately after a meal
