    I walk Roscoe at least once a day - Usually he gets two, but in the winter they are sometimes shorter walks.

    Everyday if the weather is decent. Even if the ground is just wet, we can't walk Frisk due to his allergies.

    I don't walk my dogs around the neighborhood or anything like that. I take them places like the dog park, the pet store, and the local parks -- more like an outing and chance for socialization than a walk. Although I do take them to a lake around here, which has a sidewalk all the way around it and shops (including a small pet shop). One walk around the lake is 1 1/2 miles I think, and I take them around until they get tired. We haven't done this since November-ish (maybe October, because I haven't taken Luka yet and I got her in November) since it has been chilly.

    An actual walk - hardly ever.
    Taking them places - usually daily.

    They burn off enough energy in the backyard and I believe I give them enough socialization outside of the house that walks aren't really needed. Besides my neighborhood is booooring

    When it was warmer I would take Jack for a bike ride daily, and I would try to walk them all every day but sometimes it is just impossible with everything else I have to do...and I usually don't walk them all at the same time so they at least get a walk every other day. Since its colder now and snow on the ground (and some people don't shovel their sidewalks ) Micki and Kyra haven't been out much...waay to cold for them, they can't even stand going out to go potty once in a while

    actual leashed walks? never. walks that just happen to be on the way to a park for an off leash run? when I can. they dont get amny in the winter, I mostly work with their brains for winter, and take them to the park when its not too cold(I cant afford to get sick) and when I am not working, I live in a bad area, and I leave for work when the sun rises and get home when the sun has already set, lets just say its not exactly safe for a teenage girl to be standing alone in a park in the hood after dark lol (I live just outside the hood, but the parks are actually IN the hood) they get much more in the summer because the days are much longer, no problem taking them for runs after work because the sun does not set for another 4 hours lol

    In the winter, hardly ever. It's pretty much dark when I get home and it's dark when I leave in the morning, I dn't feel comfortable walking in the dark at all. In the spring & summer, Tango gets walked a few times daily (not that she needs to that often, I jsut like to), the Dobes go for a walk a few times a week, Tia gets walked about once a week and until I can fully trust Comet, he only goes for a short walk about once a week. When she's older, Morgan will probably get a walk about 4 times weekly. They go to the off leash park weekly aswell.
