Walking my puppy

Hi, i have two questions regarding walks:

1) is it best to take zeus on a walk before or after food?

2) at 13 weeks old, i know i should only take him on a 15/20 minute walk. but how often can i take him in a day?

You can take him out 3 times a day, as long as each walk is about 15 minutes or so.

As to food, I never walk my dogs immediately before or after food. I tend to walk them & then wait at least an hour to feed. That gives them a chance to calm down after the walk, and settle their stomachs before the next walk.

Same here as well

thanks guys. the only problem i have is that i wake up at 7.30 to take zeus out for a walk, and i have to feed him and go to work by 9. what would be the best way of doing this? should i take him out for a walk straight away at 730, and then wait till around 830 to feed him?

Yes!

As above with me too Buster gets walked in the morning before food, and he has his late walk about 1 1/2 hrs ish after his dinner, sometimes a bit longer.

thank you!
