This question is posed regarding the dogs….not your significant other! If you like your significant other, by all means, walk together.
Things have been a bit busier than normal at home and I’ve had to make the choice to either walk the dogs together or separately. My choice has always been separately for a couple reasons: Deke and I have always walked alone and it’s our bonding time. Deke and Delaney also walk at different paces. The other added benefit is that I also get more exercise out of it. But I figured I would give it a shot since they actually do get along most of the time.
Interestingly enough, I find when I have walked them together, they each find a happy medium. Deke keeps up a faster pace than normal to adjust for Delaney. Delaney doesn’t stop as often. Because while slower at times, Deke likes to keep moving ahead.
If possible, I still like to keep them separate but I do like knowing they can manage together when need be.
Any multiple dog owners out there that prefer it either way?
