CanlıDostumWalks, runs and play: is your pet moving enough?
Exercise is key for weight, joints and behaviour. CanlıDostum shows walk, run and play time, calories burned and how close you are to the daily goal.
"Did we walk enough today?"
Short trips outside add up, but nobody knows the total. A dog that cannot burn energy may bark, chew things or become restless.
The same goes for cats: regular play helps with both weight and stress.
- Nobody knows the total walking time
- Lots of exercise at weekends, little on weekdays
- Family members don't know who walked the dog
- Cat play time is not tracked

How much exercise does my dog need?
Needs depend on breed, age, weight and health. The times below are a general starting guide for healthy adult dogs.
| Energy level | Example breeds | Daily activity |
|---|---|---|
| High | Border Collie, Malinois, Husky, Labrador | 1.5–2 hours (including running and play) |
| Medium | Golden Retriever, Beagle, Cocker Spaniel | 1–1.5 hours |
| Low / small breed | Maltese, Shih Tzu, Chihuahua, Pomeranian | 30–60 minutes |
| Flat-faced breeds | Pug, French Bulldog, Bulldog | 30–60 min in short, cool sessions |
General guide; for dogs with heart, joint or breathing problems your vet sets the time.
Puppies and senior dogs
- A popular rule of thumb for puppies: 5 minutes per month of age, twice a day (e.g. ~20 min for a 4-month-old). Avoid long runs and stairs.
- For senior dogs, shorter and more frequent walks are better than one long walk.
- Hot pavement can burn paws: if you cannot hold the back of your hand on it for 5 seconds, it is too hot.
How much play does a cat need?
For most adult cats, 2–3 sessions of 10–15 minutes of active play a day is enough. Toys that mimic hunting (wands, balls) work best; ending the game with a treat satisfies the cat.

How long can a puppy walk?
A common rule is 5 minutes per month of age, twice a day. Avoid long runs until growth plates close.
Can I track activity for my cat?
Yes. Log play sessions and see daily and weekly time.
How are calories burned estimated?
Using activity type, duration and your pet's profile. The value is for guidance.
