10. Beware of overfeeding

Shorter walks and less exercise outside may mean an adjustment to your dog's diet is needed. Less exercise while feeding your dog the same amount of food can lead to weight gain over the course of the season. Remember that when your dog is less active, they need fewer calories. Under veterinary guidance, reduce your dog's meal size slightly if their walks and exercise time is minimal, and try to keep unhealthy treats to a minimum.
