>>2106754same as with human training; through progressive overload. take him out on short hikes and monitor how long he keeps up, and continuously push the boundaries of how long the goodboy goes. obviously the success will also depend on the breed and physical fitness of your dog. I was reading all over the place about how you can only walk your dog 5 minutes per month of age, but again that is breed and fitness dependent and is a generalization to be as safe as possible for all breed and owner types (some owners might not closely monitor their dogs specific fitness abilities)
my little nigga hiked out 9 miles, took a nap and ate his lunch and sauntered back with me when he was like 6 months old. dude can now trail run a marathon with me at 2 years. but he's also a cattle dog/not pure-bred, so he's kinda built for that and not expected to have goofball genetic disorders from inbreeding
