Tiny Toy Poodles are small, active, and intelligent dogs that require regular exercise to stay healthy and happy. Here’s a guide to their exercise needs:

Daily Exercise Requirements

1. Duration: 30–60 minutes of exercise daily.

   • This can be split into two or three shorter sessions to match their energy levels.

2. Type of Exercise:

   • Walks: 15–20 minute walks, twice a day, are ideal for physical activity and mental stimulation.

   • Playtime: Interactive games like fetch, tug-of-war, or chasing a ball provide both exercise and bonding time.

   • Mental Stimulation: Puzzle toys or obedience training sessions help engage their sharp minds.

3. Indoor Activities:

   • Toy Poodles are small enough to exercise indoors with games like hide-and-seek or running after a toy.

   • Set up a mini agility course with household items for fun and movement.

4. Socialization:

   • Regular visits to a dog park or playdates with other dogs can fulfill their need for social interaction and additional exercise.

Additional Considerations

• Avoid Overexertion: Due to their small size, they can tire quickly. Monitor them for signs of fatigue like excessive panting or slowing down.

• Weather Precautions: They are sensitive to extreme temperatures, so adjust their outdoor activities accordingly.

• Age-Specific Needs:

  • Puppies may need shorter, more frequent play sessions.

  • Senior Toy Poodles may require gentler activities but still benefit from daily movement.

Regular exercise helps maintain their physical health, prevents obesity, and reduces behavioral issues caused by boredom.
