You can and should accustom your pet to your schedule, but you cannot force him to endure more than 12 hours.

A pet owner is always worried about early walks.

It should be remembered that if you want to sleep longer in the morning, you can walk with your pet around 10 pm.

For an adult dog, it doesn’t matter when the morning walk takes place – at 5 or 10 am.

It is important that the break between walks does not exceed 12-14 hours.

Experts say that getting up early is another myth.

In reality, the dog will happily lie around with you longer if you can train it to do so.

Your pet will calmly wait for the next walk, having gotten used to your daily routine, if the break between walks does not exceed 12-14 hours.

For a dog, it is not the walks themselves that are important, but the ritual, so to speak, certain patterns. If a dog wakes up its owner early in the morning, he jumps up and runs with it for a walk, then this will happen constantly.

Before a walk at a certain time, you need to put a collar on the dog and repeat these actions constantly. This will be a signal to the animal that a walk is allowed.
