How long is his leash? (or don't you use one?) Mine is 10-15 ft or so. I tried your "keep moving while doggy sniffs" trick and only succeeded in making myself very dizzy. Dog was 10ft or so out into the grass, and my turns had to be fairly tight - only a several foot path before I turned again.
So I dropped the technique.
