Any Q

Lurcher puppies are a bundle of energy. And whilst it's tempting to take them on a long walk to tire them out, the fact is that it's very easy to overexercise .


How long should I walk my Lurcher puppy?

How much exercise does my Lurcher need? For most Lurchers, you should aim for at least 40 minutes of exercise per day. Whilst this goal may seem low, it's all thanks to their sighthound heritage.

How much exercise should a Lurcher puppy have?

Lurchers require at least two walks a day, and need the option to stretch their legs out for at least one of their walks. Given they have a strong prey drive, many owners opt to keep their Lurchers on the lead when out and about.

Can Lurchers do long walks?

A lurcher would happily walk as much as your spaniel. Just because it might not NEED huge amounts of excersise, doesn't mean it can't cope with it. My whippet gets at least 2 hours walk a day come rain or shine.

What happens if I walk my puppy too far?

Puppies need much less exercise than fully grown dogs. If you over-exercise a growing puppy you can overtire it and damage its developing joints, causing early arthritis.
