Buddy the English bulldog is all set for Christmas, and you can see a sparkling tree behind him, but there’s one business unfinished – the walking business. And it must be finished NOW!
We all know that walking is good for our fur balls, even this adorable English bulldog pup knows it and he’s willing to walking with his daddy no matter what happens. But did you know that walking is both good and bad for your English bulldog pups?
Why is it good? According to BulldogPros”Exercise is very important for English Bulldogs to keep them fit and healthy. Just like us, regular exercise helps control their weight and build and maintain muscle. However, unlike humans, they need (and can only withstand) a very limited amount of exercise each day.”
Why is it bad? They continue to state that, “In fact, over exercising can be just as unhealthy as not getting enough! Bulldogs are prone to hip, knee and various joint issues due to their build. Shorter legged, heavy-weight dogs are more susceptible to weak joints due to the extreme pressure placed on them when running, playing and even walking.”
So what should you do? It is always best to supervise all activity and be watchful for any labored breathing or limping. If you see either of these, you must immediately stop what they are doing and get them back inside to rest. Now watch this fur ball’s reaction when daddy asks for a walk on page 2 below!
