Returning from forest walks - The New Forest Dog Hotel Dog boarding Hampshire | thenewforestdoghotel.co.uk
You can see from the photograph that we’re just back from one of our forest walks. The New Forest National Park is on our doorstep. When your dog comes to stay with us they will get two thirty minute forest walks a day. We never walk more than two dogs together so you can be assured your dog will get the one to one attention they deserve. Our guests love our forest walks.
Walking with your dog is a great way to get in the minimum recommended 30 minutes of physical activity each day. A study found that dog owners who walk their get twice as much exercise as other people. Here are benefits of walking your dog from Pet360:
A regular, dedicated walking time ensures you and your pet are getting the minimum amount of activity to prevent weight gain. Unless your pooch wears a pet pedometer, it’s otherwise hard to know if he is getting in enough activity during the day. You may not have the luxury of forest walks, but a walk in the local park, or along the road can do wonders.
