Personally, I wouldn't walk any lizard less than 3.5 - 4 feet along the sidewalk in the manner one would walk a dog. Anything smaller is harder to see and is thus more likely to get stepped on, and a smallish lizard may get spooked being on ground level surrounded by people and possibly dogs. I've also noticed the larger lizards get, the easier they are to control on a leash. When I take Kodo for a "walk," he's just leashed and either sitting on my should or in my hand and I do the actual walking.
