    The park. You’re going to the park. Everyday. If you live in a warm environment with a beach, that’s where you’re going. That park.

    I have a Shiba. Walking her is like walking a cat, so I beg to differ

    sometimes I just close my eyes and see where my dog takes me, is fun, mentally hard, but fun.

      I do this too. :p

      The neighbors must think I’m insane.

      I try to count the steps and see if I can make it further than before. My record is like 140.

      It’s very mentally hard. I’m always thinking, “oh I’ve gotta be going down someone’s driveway now!”

        I try to use the dip in the curb for driveways to tell if I’m going the right way

    I’d say a dog would still go to predictable places eg. they’d go for a walk on their usual route (maybe a bit larger).

      I had a Husky. For me it would have been the random path of deer, rabbits, and random people’s driveways. He had no sense of direction, and cared not for walking norms.

    While backpacking in Ireland, my friend and I visited the small island of Inish Oirr. We had all day to explore the island so set off without any route planned. A black dog tagged along and soon started guiding our way. He would loop back and stop to wait for us at turns. We followed him blindly through the maze of stone walls. He led us to a lake, a lighthouse, and a shipwreck. He always seemed excited to show us the next landmark. We literally followed a dog from morning until sunset. It felt as though he had done this many times before. He was such a good boy.
