LOL, so true. I can see little Thor now. You should buy him a suit - that'd be great.
And I usually let Jackson wander off at some point in the walk as well. I think it's only fair. He does so great walking that I like to let him sniff what he wants, mark whatever trees he wants, and then we'll go back to me being in control for the last part of the walk. Generally, I like to start and end the walk that way.
