[NAGDU] How do you stay mobile with a guide dog?

[sblanjones11 at sbcglobal.net]

Having a guide dog definitely motivates me to get out and walk when I otherwise might not.  
I also attend to my own exercise needs, apart from working my dog.

Hi all,
As a prospective guide dog user, I’m curious how you all stay mobile with a guide dog. Do you go on hikes together? Do you go on city walks? Do you find that your daily walks have helped you go out more?
I’m curious about this because I live in the Netherlands where it’s dark and cold in the morning for like 8 months of the year, haha. I think that the accountability of caring for a guide dog will also make it a no brainer to get some sunlight (when it exists) every day. I wonder if this has actually been your experience, and what you all found on the other side of having a guide dog and going out more.
Thanks a lot,
Parham
