Sadie Board and Train day 1

4/23/2015

0 Comments

 
Sadie is here for a few days of leash training. Her leash manners are pretty impressive in a not so good way. She is quite a back-talker and will manipulate her way to doing what she wants if she can get away with it. But she is sweet natured and willing to please (and did I mention funny?) so I do think we can make quick progress with her.
Today we went on two walks and while the first one was pretty bad the second one already showed improvement. The first walk saw a lot of bucking, jumping up, trying to play with the leash, pulling forward and then refusing to move but by the end she was walking somewhat politely after I stalwartly refused to do anything but walk with her. You could almost hear her say "HMPH!" 
The second walk was a few hours later and she was a bit more polite. Still some bucking and some pouting but she walked like a lady for a good portion of the walk and she only tried to play with the leash once. Her automatic Sit is not at all automatic yet. That is tomorrow's project.
I am excited to help Sadie and hopefully we will make lots of progress over the next few days and make walking her a more enjoyable experience for all involved. Welcome, Sadie!
