How Much Exercise Do Flat-Coated Retrievers Need?
According to professional Flat-Coated Retriever dog experts, Flat-Coated Retriever dogs score out of 5 in a scale of how daily they need to be exercised.
This active dog needs a daily walk or jog to be on its best behavior. Be sure the dog is made to heel beside or behind the person holding the lead, as instinct tells a dog the leader leads the way, and that leader needs to be the human. It especially enjoys the chance to hunt or swim. The Flat-Coated Retriever makes an excellent jogging companion.
