Topic Dog Boards / General / How long on walks?
- By LisaW [gb] Date 21.02.05 15:40 UTC
I have recieved lots of conflicting advice about how long I should be walking my four month old labrador puppy? How long do you think is the right amount? (mins)

The general rule is that pups should be walked for about 5 minutes for every month of age.  So, at four months old, your pup should be walked for about 20 minutes.

The usual "rule of thumb" is 5 mins per month of age - ie as your puppy is 4 months, you should not be exercising him for more than 20 mins at a time (5 x 4).

Hope this helps
