My dog was a puppy last year through the darkest bits of the winter so although obviously we walked him in the all the dark and cold and wet it wasn't particularly far, and by the time he was ready for long walks and runs (cocker spaniel) it was spring and there were longer evenings.
So, stupid question alert, how do I do this? I live in a village with no street lighting - obviously a big torch is a necessity, but most of our favourite walks are through woodland and over fields which are just not do-able in the dark. Do any of you change your walking habits for autumn/winter? Am I being a wimp to not fancy deserted lanes after dark given I will have the dog with me?
