As my title says there is a smoke warning over Calgary from forest fires in BC. The health people are advising people with asthma to stay indoors.

My question is will this hurt my pup if I get someone to walk him daily? I have asthma and will not be able to as long as it is like this? Can I let him outside to play or just let him poop and pee then back in house?

It really shouldn't harm him too much, I mean if the smoke is that bad, then his time out side should be limited, but I think a short walk in a park will be fine.

Thank you for your response. I just wanted to make sure I was doing right by my baby. I know he needs daily walks and wanted to make sure it was still safe to do it.
I hate the fact though I can't go out for walks, as that is a new part of my exercise routine to try and lose weight. Hopefully this will not last long

It is bad in Manitoba to, I am trying to not let my dog out to often, his walks have been greatly deminshed mostly because I don't want to be out there. We have uped our inside play time though, and since this he has learned to shake a paw and crawl :)
