Hi everyone hope you and your staffies are all well my 2 pups Jinx and Leo are now fully vaccinated and free to go outside for walks i was just wondering how often should i be walking them we have a big field and in total the walk from start to finish is about 45 minutes so i one walk enough or should it be more sorry its such a silly question but i have read a few posts about their joints still forming so don't want to over do it many thanks for the replies in advance Big Grin

We were told 5mins a month, plus 5mins, so that's only about 20 mins for jinx (3 months ish?)
Not sure if this can be more than once a day though?

I'm fairly new( 8mths) to the world of staffies but I believe it's 5 mins per month of age on-lead walking, pretty much as often as the puppy requires. Off-lead isn't a problem as the pup can stop as often as he likes.

Yes, 5 minutes per month of age lead walking, two or three times a day. Off lead, on soft ground (grass or sand) is fine in addition to that, as long as the pup is allowed to stop & rest any time, and you take into account the walk home! Big Grin

Agree with what's been said Smile five minutes per month of their age per walk, plus off-lead time and play.
