American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA.) “ Most small dogs need 30 to 60 minutes of daily exercise. Grassy parks are recommended for exercise because grass stays cooler than asphalt and is gentler on a dog joints”.
1. They will be nicely spoken to and gently placed on their van seat.
2. Little dogs will have a safe ride to the park while tethered to their harness, on top of a booster seat which is covered with a clean towel.
3. Usually, we walk little dogs a shorter distance (we will follow your instruction for how much walking). They will have plenty of playtime with short distance (20 ft) fetching with a personal fetch-ball, personal frisbee-ring, personal badminton-birdie. The little guys love playing with the badminton birdie. If they do not want to fetch, then we will play chase with them in a 20 foot section of the grass. These guests of ours will also play and socialize among themselves and have a great time at the park.
4. Small dogs are matched with other small dogs so they can socialize and play with us and each other.
5. We keep a close eye on our little friends to make sure they are not getting fatigued.
6. Short nosed dogs (Bulldogs , Boxers, Boston Terriers, Shitzus and Pugs) should exercise when the temperature is cooler.
