I do offer what I call mid day dog "smalks" which all dogs enjoy. They get out of the house for a nice walk and get to smell all the good things that dogs love to smell on their walks:) I will not take them on "smalks" when the mid day heat is too much for them. Dogs over heat quickly in the mid day sun and should not be exposed to it for a prolonged period. I will also not take them out if the weather is threatening to either the dog or myself. In those instances they will be let out to go "potty" and then brought back inside for some playtime.
Your dog will NEVER be walked off leash as I do not believe any responsible pet owner would chance their pets safety or the safety of anyone else's pet or persons.
