They keep you active
Dogs need to be walked, and they need to be walked often. Most pet owners walk their dogs around three times a day. Walking outdoors has some unexpected benefits; both you and your puppy are likely to feel happier and healthier having gotten the exercise.
Rescue dogs, in particular, might not have always had someone to care for them by walking them regularly. As a result, you’ll probably feel extra motivated to take them for a longer stroll more often.
