Grew up with multiple energetic Spring Spaniels.My wife and i look forward to own dogs in the future! In the meantime, I already go on morning walking and am looking to add a dog to walk with. My morning walks are usually around 3 miles. I have tons of past experiences walking all types and behaviors of dogs. I understand some dogs have strict commands they should abide by and some dogs are ...just looking to get some steps in. I’m happy to accommodate your specific commands. Growing up one of our dogs was always a sporting dog and it was important we focused of specific commands or phrases. If your dog doesn’t have specific phrases or word and is just on a walk to enjoy the day that’s great!
