 |
|
What are some good exercises my puppy can do. He is only 4.5 months old. I was wanting to get him in to weight pulling eventually, but I read that you shouldn't start them that young because it can bow there legs or you know just mess them up. So I was wondering if anybody has some other stuff that is good I could do, Because I want to keep my dog looking good.

Regular play sessions and walks/runs should cover it. A young pup such as himself isn't finished growing yet. Trying to build extra muscle or conditioning them at this age can stunt their growth and cause some pretty nasty health problems and joint problems.
You can get the weight balls if you'd like and just leave them empty fro tthe time being. Then as he gets older, you can fill them with water, or sand. But for now. Just general puppy play nad walks, runs, combined with a wholesome diet should do it! |
