> dog owners will have to ensure that their animals are walked at least twice a day

OK, makes sense, but my dog is old and can't walk for longer than 10 minutes without literally dying.

This will only lead to people getting rid of their pets. If you have a full time job, how will this work?

Medical reasons should be an exception, I think.

Leaving dogs alone every day has been shown to lead to depression in said dogs. So, perhaps having a full time job might be incompatible with owning most breed of dogs? Nonetheless, WFH might help.
