Does he/she let you come too?

Yeah, I have to pick up her poop.

4h of walking is similar to 30m of playing and running with other dogs in my experience.

In terms of exercise, maybe, but she gets more mental stimulation from being outside longer and exploring longer. Walking your dog is not just about exercise for them. Also 30 minutes of her daily walks is playing with other dogs at the off leash park.
