Dog Walking is an exercise that anyone can do. What’s wonderful about it is that you can do it unaccompanied or with someone. If you do not have a friend, the dog provides great company. It’s pretty easy to do, and requires no special equipment, apart from a dog, a lead and comfy shoes. It is also free, in fact you can make money out of it. In addition it can be done just about anywhere, even in London dog walking is popular.
Dog walking has many benefits. It is the key element of dog care. It burns calories, it helps with weight control. Sixty minutes of dog walking ( that is you with the dog!) will burn between 200 and 300 calories, depending on your mass. The heavier you are, the more calories you use. Walking does not pressure your limbs, unlike running, which can damage your joints and bones.
In fact it truly helps the knees. The act of dog walking encourages cartilage growth and the flow of synovial fluid inside the knee. It also builds the muscles that protect the knee.
Because dog walking is weight-bearing it also helps builds the muscles that protect the hips. At the same time it strengthens bones therefore minimising the possibility of fracture due to osteoporosis. By strengthening the core muscles of the spine and abdomen, dog walking helps reduce the probability of getting low back pain.
The increased effort required for dog walking helps the heart to pump more strongly. This helps reduce blood pressure with the subsequent reduced risk for stroke and heart attack.
Dog walking increases the respiratory rate (breathing rate), promotes increased flow of oxygen to the rest of the body and also helps eliminate the buildup of carbon dioxide. A major plus for you and the dog is improved energy.
Studies show that exercise such as dog walking increases endorphin production which helps relieve pain, reduces serum cortisol levels which helps relieve stress (as does having animals around, so a double benefit), and may also reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.
So how do I {kick off with} start dog walking.
Pretty simple. The first thing is to make sure you have a good pair of walking shoes. If you have a history of flat feet, you should use orthotics.
Do not try to do too much at the very beginning. Build up gradually increasing the amount you walk. A great target is 10,000 steps per day, which is roughly 5 miles. Don’t worries it is not that far, note, most people already walk about 3,000 to 5,000 steps a day during the course of a standard day. Please note that many dogs, who evolved from wolves still have the same characteristics, require to walk over 5 miles a day. Most have the stamina for fifteen or more miles a day.
Depending on your health, you can build up from low levels. Only one issue, I don’t have a dog. Not a problem, enquire around, there are many people who are time starved and don’t have ~sufficient time for walking their dog. Increasingly, during this credit crunch period, dogs are being handed into dog charities, so either volunteer to become a dog walker or why not re-house a dog.
Strapped for cash, why not help out people who do not have time for dog walking and set up a business walking their dog.
How fast for your dog walking will depend on you and your dog. Start cautiously. A moderate pace, you can walk up to about 2-3 miles an hour. A good rule of thumb is that you should be breathing faster and feel your heart rate increasing but still be able talk comfortably. You need to ensure that the dog is not pulling you, it’s not good for him and it is more tiring for you.
Please note, it’s important to keep up your dog walking routine, for both you and the dog! Enjoy it.
