Dog Tip of the Day

Dealing with Overexcited or Hyperactive Dogs

What are the most common misbehavior problems people have with their dogs? The Dog Whisperer's Cesar Millan is dealing with the top five problems in his new Common Canine Misbehaviors, the fifth DVD in the Mastering Leadership series.

Yesterday we covered problem #5: aggression with other dogs. Today, a look at #4: overexcited or hyperactive dogs.

According to Cesar Millan:

Overexcited or hyperactive dogs are not being challenged enough. Most often, they just require more exercise! Find a new activity to try with your dog – hiking, swimming, agility courses – or step up your current walk routine. Dogs require at least 30 minutes of a structured walk every day. Talk to your vet about how much exercise your dog can safely handle.
