Earlier this week Mum visited a client who had a dog who was 'hyper'. His Dad thought that by giving him lots and lots of exercise, Dexter would be worn out. Mum explained that in fact, Dexter was just getting fitter and over-stimulated. Although it is important for a dog to run, play, sniff and socialise, it is important not to over-exercise. Depending on size and breed, Mum says dogs need between 14-18 hours of quality rest each day.
Dexter's Mum and Dad brought him to our 'Social Dog Walk' on Sunday morning. We had a really good time and 'shared' this long stick! I liked Dexter.
