❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How much exercise does my dog need daily?
Most adult dogs need 30–60 minutes of exercise per day. Active breeds like Border Collies or Huskies may need 60–90 minutes, while small or brachycephalic breeds like Pugs may only need 20–30 minutes. Puppies need shorter, more frequent sessions — about 5 minutes per month of age, twice a day. Our calculator adjusts recommendations based on breed size and age.
How many calories does my dog burn on a walk?
A medium-sized dog (25 kg) burns roughly 80–120 calories on a 30-minute brisk walk. Smaller dogs burn less (~30–50 kcal), while larger dogs burn more (~150–200 kcal). The exact amount depends on weight, pace, terrain, and duration. Our calculator gives a personalized estimate based on your dog's profile and walk details.
How far can my dog walk?
Most healthy adult dogs can walk 3–8 km per day depending on breed and fitness. High-energy breeds may manage 10+ km, while small or senior dogs may prefer 1–3 km. Always watch for signs of fatigue — heavy panting, lagging behind, or lying down. Build up distance gradually, just like human fitness training.
Is walking enough exercise for my dog?
Walking is excellent for most dogs, but many also need mental stimulation and off-leash running time. Combine walks with play sessions, training, or dog park visits for a well-rounded routine. For high-energy breeds, consider adding fetch, agility training, or dog sports to meet their exercise needs. Shop fetch toys →
