Due to the fact that as dogs get older they are dealing with arthritis and other ailments, it often becomes tougher for older dogs to get the exercise they need so many people stop taking them for walks. What people don't realize is that older dogs, even arthritic dogs still need to stay active, you just have to be creative. I tell a lot of our readers that a dog stroller can be a huge help because you can take your senior dog for a walk and that might be 2 minutes and then you put them in the stroller for a break. I have a 13 year old pug and he goes in and out of the stroller. In fact he lets me know when he is ready to walk and when he is ready to ride. The main thing is that he's out getting exercise even if that exercise is short moments of walking. thanks for the post Ann-Marie Great points about keeping your senior dog active.
