On the other hand... a quarter of a mile is not that long really. We have started walking our dogs two miles minimum every morning and today my husband took Checkers for a jog that was approximately equivilant to a quarter of a mile and he was still rarin to go afterwards. Now... we also do our walks alongside a river so when he gets hot or thirsty he can just go down for a little dunk hehe. For a five month old though... I'm not sure. I think a walk that distance would be terrific, but maybe would hold off on jogging him for another couple of months until his joints have had a little more time to fuse. That's just being extra cautious though.. best thing would be to call and ask the vet what they think.
