Facts for the Humans

Why do dogs need dog walkers?

Approximately 80% of households which have dogs find it difficult to find time to fit in three 30 mins. - 1 hour walks per day.  Similar to humans, dogs need mental and physical stimulation everyday.  If both dog owner's work, the dog will get bored at home, this sometimes encourages other unwanted mental stimulations such as destructive behaviour.  Active dogs are proven to be more responsive and have less behavioural issues.  Aside from behavioural issues there are physical advantages if dogs are walked regularily.

 

How many times should a dog be walked?

 

We encourage three (3) to four (4) 30 mins - 1 hour walks daily.  This will generate enough mental and physical activity for your dog.
