I tried the gentle leader on Honey
last night for our walk. She did it, but not without whining. I
carried on with images of me in a wheelchair facing me in the future as opposed
to enduring a little whining now. (What an effective image!!!)
Thanks for it!
This morning she went for the lead
thrilled with the treat. She struggled on the floor for a
while afterward. I got down and played with her when
she stopped. And she was then just fine. I connected her leash only to her
collar to take her out to do her business in our yard. Then knowing she had no excuse to
vary her path by my side or call for my sympathy in her halting, I snapped the
leash to the lead.
Wow!!!!!
I had the most perfectly pleasant
walk with a dog I’ve ever had in my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We went on a
very long walk. No whining. No halting. No bulking!! I can only foresee it continuing in
like fashion for the future.
Life as we’ve been knowing it has
vastly improved!! I absolutely love to walk. And I love the
attitude that that is what I am doing and Honey is coming along with me instead
of vice versa!!
You’re a super teacher.
Thanks,
Sharon
PS See you for the evening obedience
classes in early June.
