Will the dog suffocate if it is not walked for a day?

A dog will not suffocate if it is not walked for a day. Although it is not recommended to let dogs hold back urine at home. But once or twice once in a while is no problem for dogs, but if it does so for a long time, it may lead to urinary system diseases in dogs. If the owner does not have time to go for a walk, he can choose to ask a friend to help.

Generally speaking, the daily walking time of small dogs is controlled at about 20-30 minutes; while medium and large dogs only need about 30-60 minutes a day, even office workers should take their dogs out for exercise.

The consequences of not walking the dog for a long time

1. Behavior of holding back urine: some dogs don’t pee at home unless they have to, and holding back urine is very harmful to the dog’s body, and it is easy to get urinary stones.

2. Walking with a limp: If the dog does not go out for a long time and has little exposure to sunlight, it will lead to insufficient calcium in the body, the phenomenon of "squatting hooves", and the lack of strength in walking legs.

3. Lack of social interaction: Dogs who stay at home for a long time will gradually lose their social ability, and their physical strength will not be exhausted, so they will be depressed.

4. Poor physical fitness: Dogs who do not exercise are definitely poor in physical fitness, so they are more likely to get sick.

5. Psychological problems: If the dog is kept in a cage or in the same environment for a long time, it may become irritable and have a bad temper.

6. Barking and demolishing the house: Dogs often feel aggrieved when they stay at home, and bark if their energy is not released, which disturbs the neighbors. Some dogs may even vent their dissatisfaction by tearing down the house .
