Can you over-exercise a dog?
Yes. Puppies should follow the "5-minute rule" - 5 minutes of exercise per month of age, twice daily. Over-exercising puppies can damage growing joints. Senior dogs need gentler, shorter sessions.
Signs of too much exercise
Excessive panting, limping, reluctance to move, swollen joints, or sleeping more than usual. Always provide water breaks and avoid exercise in extreme heat.
