I can walk your dog. I'll also confuse them by making the sounds they make when they make them. I'm not adverse to picking-up after them because in our family we own a Yorkshire terrier and I've cared for her throughout the years. (Walked her, picked-up after her, washed her, fed and satiated her, put eye drops in her for her cataracts, and even brushed her teeth) Since she is small we usually let her lead the walks, but I've handled German-shepherds (friend's dog) before and "lead them" instead.I've also had the patience to wait with a dog until they finally eat their dry food even though they may not want to and I feed them by hand to make them feel like human family.
