I take my dog anywhere,i take him out on 40mile runs,i even take him on mtb-marathons of over 80mile(have a cart on my bike so he doesn't have to run all the time!! )He love it soooo much,i make sure we pass some ponds(so he can drink and cool of)on long runs i take some food,so halfway we stop and enjoy the scenery and eat .the first hour or 2 i keep him on a leash,otherwise he goes berserk and be everywhere!Top make him conserve his energy i keep him leashed up,after i let do as he pleases.He'll more or less stay by my side...
