Pre-conditionGoing for a walk is possible. That depends on whether conditions are suitable and if it fits in the schedule. Nurse/Caretaker can provide this schedule to Dogg0
Post-conditionThe walk has ended.
Action sequence

1) Initiate 'Going for a walk'

'Going for a walk' can be initiated in three ways: 1) A Person with Dementia gives cue to dog that he/she wants to go for a walk by giving the commando 'walk'. 2) Dogg0 displays its' "willingness to walk" behaviour and patient follows Dogg0. 3) Nurse/Caretaker takes the patient on a walk themselves. 

2 Assist Person with Dementia in going for a walk if necessary

In case 1 and 2, the Nurse/Caretaker gets notified that the Person with Dementia wants to for a walk. The Nurse/Caretaker proceeds to assist PwD if necessary.

3 Dogg0 follows Person with Dementia

Dogg0 follows the Person with Dementia while they go on a walk. Dogg0 should be autonomous enough to follow but the Nurse/Caretaker could intervene if something goes wrong.
