If dogs could speak fluent English, life would certainly be easier. Although some dogs would probably use their new language skills mainly to demand extra treats, complain about bath time, and negotiate longer walks.
When most people think about walking their dog, they think about exercise, Burning off energy, Stretching legs or Ticking a box.
But in reality, a dog’s walk is about so much more than physical movement.
For dogs, walks are a vital part of their mental health, emotional balance, confidence, and behaviour.
When done properly, a walk can calm an anxious dog, build trust, improve training, and strengthen the bond between dog and owner.
