Hi Lydia,
Sorry about missing your first post...don't know how they slip past!
Anyway, at 11 months, your dog could probably go on good, long walks with you...the caution I would make is this:
Be sure not to go so far that you have to walk a long way back if your dog does get tired.
Don't over do ... no jogging (until the dog is 18 months) or you risk hip injury.
Keep water handy.
Remember that hot pavement, ice, rocks, thorns, etc. are very hard on your dog's feet...
Otherwise, your dog will probably let you know when to call it quits!
Enjoy! (These dogs do love exercise and some can walk for very long periods...just use your best judgment.)
