This week we are watching my brother's Golden Retriever. I cannot believe how easy he is to walk - perfect heeler - sigh!
I constantly struggle with how structured my beagle's walks should be. Each night, we take about a 30-45 minute walk. It's more of a meander since I let him stop and sniff at various points along the way. I do not always let him stop when he wants, but he does get plenty of opportunities. On the weekends when I have a lot more time (and honestly, patience!) our walks are more structured with more of a focus on heeling.
So I guess my question is - how structured are your walks?
