I used to have three Maltese. At home, they could go whatever they liked. Also, I had taken care of my aunt's dog for come days her family went traveling. I just love them so much. I can spend whole day just playing with them. While I'm walking them, I try to follow their speed because they always seem so curious and happy. So, don't worry. Your dog will relax and have a fun time while walking. Also, I'm very flexible, and I know every dog is different, so let me know in advance what your dog likes, and what I should watch out for. Thanks!
