Hi Jennifer, Thanks for your email! I think a neighborhood dog walking group is a idea. Charlie definitely needs more exercise than I can provide most days. I'd be happy to join the meeting this Saturday at The Daily Grind. Actually, I've been thinking about something similar myself, but never . I know several other dog owners who might be interested too - the couple who recently moved in across from me have a very energetic beagle who could benefit from this arrangement. Regarding your proposed , I think it sounds reasonable, though we might want to consider how to handle different walking preferences. Some dogs need longer walks than others. I'm also wondering if we should create a simple to keep track of the schedule. I'd be happy to help set that up since I at work. Looking forward to Saturday! Best, Samantha
