Good Morning

Post by josie1918 »

Have been taking the dogs out at 5:30 a.m. because of the heat, the down side is there is much more wild life out and about at this time of the morning. This morning while taking Sam out, about 6' away sat a large rabbit. I thought ok, you can do this, Sam saw it, perked up, but kept walking, he gave one,(count it ONE!!) small whine :D BUT kept on walking, I told him calmly "good boy" and just kept right on walking with him. YES!!! Kill them if you must when you are off lead, but walk like a decent dog when you are on your leash!!! :D

Well done Josie, Sam has come a long way in a short time even if it did seem this would never happen at one stage. This just shows that if you persever you get there in the end. :D

If an opportunity comes to you in life, say yes first, even if you don't know how to do it.
