My dogs are 2 and 4 pounds.... My boyfriend take them for a mile walk every single night. They love their walk so much. We live in a very dog friendly neighborhood, so they encounter lots of k9s..... we jsut keep them in a harness and on a very short leash and we keep our eyes peeled. We have lots of owls in our neighborhood and the occasional coyote, but I just stay really alert and as I said, I keep them on a short leash so god forbid something were to happen we could scoop them up quickly. We also always walk the babies together so that my BF is in charge of Hendrix and I am in charge of Lucy.
I am sure you are fine to walk them..... just be on your toes.
