How much exercise does a puppy need?

Exercise Needs for Puppies

Puppies have a lot of energy and need regular exercise to stay healthy and happy. The amount of exercise a puppy needs depends on its breed, age, and overall health. As a general guideline, puppies should have about 5 minutes of exercise per month of age, up to twice a day. For example, a 3-month-old puppy would benefit from 15 minutes of exercise twice a day. It's important to provide a mix of physical exercise, such as walks, playtime, and mental stimulation like training sessions or puzzle toys. Be mindful not to over-exercise very young puppies or certain breeds prone to joint issues. Always consult your vet for breed-specific recommendations.
