Little Dogs Need To
Be Walked Often
by Greg Cryns
Tiny dogs have the same
needs as big dogs.
One of those needs is
frequent walks.
They need to get out and see the world as often as possible.
They need a a lot of
exercise to stay trim and fit. Don't think that simply putting
them out in the back yard is sufficient for exercise.
My three dogs get very
excited when I take them all out at the same time. My mixed
chihuahua starts to jump about two feet into the air when I get
out the leashes. My chihuahua starts to yap, yap, yap. My mixed
lab starts to pant heavily with excitement.
I am always careful to make sure I don't step on my small
chihuahua, Tiki, when walking. She tends to walk directly in front
of me so I usually shorten her leash to keep her by my side.
