I have to join too - my dog is called Treacle! Goes so well with Toffee!! I walk her about two miles and need to speed up. She walks beautifully in 'safe' areas so lack of speed is down to me.

Ive just got back from late afternoon walk with Toffee It wasn't a very successful exercise though as I met several people I hadn't seen for a while and stood nattering more than walking ! Toffee just gave up and laid down I must make excuses to rush on by in future if I want this to help me lose weight

But that social connection is an important part of overall health - don't knock it!

My dog seems to have grasped that there are different sorts of walk. Some that are more about exercise for her nose (and that's important for dogs) - I call them sniffage walks and she can stop wherever and more or less for however long she wants. And other walks where she is expected to keep up unless she needs a real wee or whatever, not just a little marker.
