Regardless of age, breed, size or disposition, all dogs need daily physical activity. Courtney Briggs, head dog trainer at Zoom Room, recommends at least 30 to 60 minutes of exercise a day as a general rule for most dogs. Consistency is key: Similar to the way proper training can prevent injury in someone who is new to, say, running, a daily exercise regimen keeps your pet in good shape and can help them avoid injuries, explains Jo Myers, D.V.M., a Colorado-based veterinarian who works with Just Answer.
