Take up running or hiking and take him with you. Exercise!

Do not over exercise a puppy. A puppy should not have any forced exercise in the first 6 months - 12 months.
By over exercising a puppy you can do a lot of damage as it's growth plates do not close until the dog is about 18 months of age.

i have a rat terrier who has pretty good muscle definition on his torso. my husband played a lot of tug-of-war with him with ropes and pull toys. get your dog on a good diet, don't give it unhealthy treats, NO unhealthy human food(a scrap of steak isn't bad every so often), make sure it drinks plenty of water. toy dogs aren't meant to be very muscular, but if you play with it enough and it gets lots of exercise, it will hold its own during tug-of-war in time!

Good diet and plenty of exercise. Take up agility. Toy Foxes have a lot of energy, so use it. Have him do a lot of jumps etc. : )

exercise. But remember, TOY dogs are not meant to be muscular! They are lap dogs and do not need much exercise and tire quickly.

Do you want it to have muscle so you can breed it with your chiwuwuw?
