I have three dogs and I walk them at least three times aday. Ususally four, and sometimes I'll take them out five times. Some people tell me this isn't enough. How many times a day do you walk your dogs?

I have 2 dogs, and I try to walk them everyday if I can, however I have had a sprained ankle so I can only walk them once a day, and ery slowly. They just love their walks, and will whine until they get them, at least the older dog will whine. When I get my shoes on, they both know they will be going for a walk, ss they go nuts. Walks are good for them as well as me. We all need our exercise, that is for sure. I need to drain their energy as they sure do have enough. Once they come back from their walk, then they are tired out and want to sleep. I just let them sleep so I can do other things. In the summer I don't walk them in the afternoon as it is to hot. When it gets cool again then I will walk them twice a day. H ave a very good day, and happy mylotting.

I only have one Dog myself. But I walk him 3 to 4 times a day. But she plays at the dog park 3 times a week. She is in great health and the vet says 3 times a day is enough as long as it for a resonable amount of time

I have 3 dogs and I walked them once a day for 1mile at the state park. When i am done they are tired . My small breed dog get tired half way through the walk and i sometime carry part way. They enjoy walking and running around.

I walk my dog twice a day because our dog won't "go" in the backyard. He really enjoys his walks and he comes home smiling. I am also getting into great shape with all the exercise.

i have 2 dogs and we dont walk them very much at all. i have a fairly large backyard that is fenced in and i just let them run off all their energy back there several times a day. sometimes probably up to 10-12 times a day
