How much exercise does a puppy really need?

I keep seeing the “5-minute rule”. Is that a real thing?

    Mostly morning walks

    A common guideline is about 5 minutes of formal walking per month of age, twice a day — but free play, sniffing and training count too, and matter more. Let the puppy set the pace, and check with your vet for your breed, especially large and giant breeds.
