The Short Answer

A healthy adult Labrador needs 10,000-14,000 steps per day, which translates to roughly 60-90 minutes of walking. However, this number varies significantly based on several factors.

Factors That Affect Your Lab's Step Goal

Age, weight, health conditions, and energy level all play a role. Puppies need shorter but more frequent walks. Senior Labs benefit from gentler, consistent activity.

How Pawmi Calculates Your Lab's Goal

Pawmi uses smart tracking to analyze your Labrador's specific profile — breed energy level (4/5 for Labs), age, weight, and health conditions — to create a personalized daily step goal that updates as your dog grows.
