What an exhilarating walk! 2 dogs left side, not pulling (was holding each leash with 2 fingers on the same hand, no tension), walked briskly for 50 minutes this way with one short potty break on a new walk route. I've had her less than 2 weeks and she is getting it! She did not really even know sit and I doubt she ever had a structured walk. She sat at 3 intersections without popping up for the full time it took the light to change. I am so proud of her!
We did not encounter any other dogs tonight (our biggest obstacle is little gladiator terrier when other dogs are coming toward us), but we will overcome that.
It was a thing of beauty to see them tracking next to each other, totally focused!
Thanks for letting me brag. I will be humming dancing (walking) queen when I go out the door. Maybe she is the walking queen. |
