Luna gets 3 walks in the weekdays and maybe 4 in the weekend..

The morning walk is for 10 minutes

The afternoon walk is anything between 1½ and 3 to 4 hours depending on the weather...

The night walk is the same as the morning walk - again if its in the summer, the night walk will be earlier and longer, as the afternoon walk will only be a short one..

In the weekend, its a morning walk, a walk to the shops (a good hour in total) and then a long afternoon walk as in the week days... and then the 10 minute night walk.

Oh and they are all more or less off lead..

She's on lead for 25 meters untill we are at the lawn behind the block where we live.. She has to be... that's the rules here.. And if we go to the local wood she's on her 8 meter long flexiline, as dogs are not allowed off lead there.. We have a lot of game(?) in there...

How long we're actually outside depends if i can let him off lead and where we're walking.If on fields behind house during the week-about an hour,but Vegas spends about 45 minutes running around like an idiot after other dogs/crows etc.Evenings-normally about an hour of on lead walking (too many kids about and he'd jump up at them).

Weekends,like this morning-about an hour of him running around (again) like an idiot after rabbits,squirrels,dogs,crows etc.Evenings-as weekdays for same reason.

Indie gets one walk a day for an hr and a half to two hours. And then she has exercise in garden 3 or 4 times a day playing frisby or on her spring pole, or we play football with her. Depends on the day and depends on my shifts. If i have a nice easy shift at work then she gets an hrs play in garden and then an hr walk and then back and play for hr in garden again followed by some training. On a bad day she gets an hr walk in morning and several play sessions in garden

of course will all change when we move as we wont have a garden, in which case she;ll be walked alot more and taken to park

Oh I might add... We dont have a garden.. But even if we did /when we do, that wont change her walks...

The garden is not for toiletting.... Only relaxation and sunbathing and playing.... JMHO of course
