After 8 months of looking we have finally been matched with our lovely rescue dog, a 5 year old black lab (pic in profile). So far so good, he is getting on great with boys. DS1 (age 3) was a bit nervous but is coming round now.
Just wondering if anyone knows how much excercise he will need, our previous rescue dogs have been 10 years+ and crossbreeds so a younger pedigree is new to me. I think I have been doing to much with him, 9 mile walk yesterday and he was pooped, wouldn't be doing this everyday but once or twice a week? On a normal day he is getting 3 walks to beach, about a mile a time? He is a bit overweight but not fat.
Thanks
