The exercise needs of Harrier puppies are different. Pup kindergarten is essential for 9-week- to 4-month-old puppies to provide them with training, socialization, and exercise. Pair it with 15-20 minutes of morning and evening playtime in your yard.
Puppies aged 4-6 months should do obedience classes every week, plus outdoor playtime and a half-mile walk every day. From 6 months and beyond, 40-minute playtime is necessary— be sure to do it during the evening or morning and not when it's too hot outside. Walks should still be limited to one-half mile.
When he turns one year, you can now take him to your jogging routines, but continue limiting the distance to less than one mile. Also, put some breaks in between and avoid hard surfaces during walks. Your dog may gradually cover longer distances as he ages, but in the meantime, keep it at graduated levels to protect your pup's joints/bones, which aren't fully mature yet.
