Walk tips

Walking an English Springer Spaniel

Springers are energetic, outdoorsy dogs that love long walks, fields and water. Plenty of sniffing and a game of fetch help burn off their energy. Check their ears and coat after muddy walks, and check with your vet about exercise for puppies and seniors.

How we estimate

Why dogs take more steps than you

You take about 2,060 steps in a mile. Dogs walk on four legs with a shorter stride, so they take more, and smaller dogs take more still. Doggy Doo multiplies the steps you'd take over the same distance by a factor for your dog's size, then adjusts for age: puppies bound along with extra steps, and seniors slow down a little.

These are estimates, not a pedometer reading. They’re built to be consistent, so you can compare one week of walks with the next.
