Start claiming territory in your neighbourhood
Begin with the streets you already walk. Colour them in, close a few blocks, then expand one street at a time.
City dog walking tips that actually help
City walks are a skill. Your dog learns the soundtrack: buses, bins, scaffolding, other dogs on short leads.
Surfaces and heat
Pavement stores summer heat. Test with the back of your hand. Prefer earlier or later slots from best time of day.
Space management
Cross the road early for a reactive dog. Give runners a lane. Not every greeting is mandatory.
Pocket parks and alleys
Variety lives in side streets. That is also how you claim new ground without driving anywhere.
Night and rain
Lights for evening safety. Towels for rain. Cities do not pause weather for you.
