How about, "Voy a sacar mi perro para caminar"?

Can the verb sacar be used in this way? Also, what is the noun for "a walk"? or maybe in Spanish you'd stick with using an infinitive "to walk" and the word para?

Thanks for your help.

Very nice thread, arnold, welcome to the forum smile

We just say: Voy a sacar a mi perro.

Actually sacar is the verb to use, good job!

The caminar part is understood.

Sorry, we are talking about my dog, so in this case Heidita wrote it correctly: "voy a sacar a mi perro a pasear"

I am a spanish speaking person. If I tell my wife: "Honey, I am going to take my dog out for a walk", I would say sentences like this: "Mi amor, voy a sacar el perro a caminar" "Mi amor, voy a sacar el perro a pasear"

I'm no expert, but that looks pretty good. But my opinion is not the only one that matters plus i'm only an intermediate speaker.
