I know the guidance for walking puppies is to only walk them for 5 mins for every month of their life. We certainly stuck to this in the beginning but in the last few weeks I've noticed that we've been increasing the length of the walk beyond this.
Our puppy is five months old (so in theory he should only have a 25 min walk) but sometimes we end up walking him for up to 40 mins.
He seems fine with is, but we obviously can't rely on him to self-regulate, and I wondered what others do/have done.
We obviously don't want to risk over-walking him or damaging his joints etc. but equally want him to have the exercise he appears to need.
