Is it ok for my 5month old lab puppy to JOG for 20-30mins ? He is a very super excited puppy, running out of ideas to make him tired.

Jogging can be harmful to puppies. Puppies should not be excercised too much, as over -excercising could cause joint and bone problems. It is not recomended to jog long distances with puppy because their bones are still growing and the repititive and high impact of runing on their growth plates can be harmful leading to shortening or conformational problems with their legs.

Sure Doctor, he is super excited and has super energy post walks and ball play . Anything you recommend to keep his excitement in control?

Short walks is a good way to help your pet feel tired without overdoing it. You can provide mental excercise. It is one of the most effective ways to help calm your dog down. You can offer your pet Puzzle feeders, puzzle games and puzzle toys. Focus on rewarding positive and calm behaviour esp. when your dog chooses to be calm on their own. Give appropriate training and socialise with other vaccinated dogs.

He is already on puppy board training from kuddle and almost learnt everything. I take him on 3walks which includes 1 long walk. For mental stimulation and few games which are homemade. He plays hide and seek and I repeat the things taught to him in puppy board training at least 2times ( 5-10mins). He has few pet puzzle which he solves very quickly.
