Is it okay to jog with your dog?

Most veterinarians say it's important to hold off on any serious jogging with a dog—any “running other than puppy play,” in Schwartz's words—until it's fully grown, to avoid developmental issues.

Is it healthy for my dog to run with me?

Ready, Set, Go: Running With Your Dog. We know that running is good for humans, but it can be good for your dog, too. Not all canines are built for running, but most dogs in good health enjoy it, even if it's only a couple of miles.

How long should I jog my dog?

Use your discretion when running with a dog – I can't go more than 3 miles with my dog without feeling like I'm torturing him. Some hyper Labradors will run 10 miles longer than they should, and risk orthopedic injury, soreness, or heat stroke in the process.
