Everyone knows that walking their pet dogs is important, but do we know the real reasons as to why. It is not all about the toilet breaks, there is so much more. Today, we are going to share with you some more reasons why you should walk your dog.

Socialisation
Taking your dog on regular walks allows them to socialise with other dogs. Meaning they will become a more sociable dog, who is able to interact with other dogs safely.

Training
Walking your dog also gives you an excellent opportunity for training exercises. For example, the recall command where your dog returns to you when their name is called. There is another opportunity to teach them to sit and stay at the roadside to keep them safe by the road.
