Twiggy - a walk to the local oval
Went with Twiggy to one of the nearby ovals. On leash, she's a typical Kelpie - in a hurry to be somewhere else so can pull like a freight train. So on leash she varied between being quite angelic to being awful!!! :)
Overall she did well and had periods where she walked very nicely on a loose leash. She was also not so zoned out that she didn't respond to her name or food. When a small yappy dog was going nuts in a backyard, she did become a bit hyper-vigilant and started pulling again but she settled quite quickly. The sound of a barking, agitated dog riles her up a little. She was fine with cars, people and other dogs she saw in the distance.
It's a bit, wide world out there Twiggy :)
She might be a bit tired. She has collapsed onto the floor next to my desk as I type this :)
ETA: She has decided she wants to give me a chance to examine her desexing scar and has rolled onto her back and exposed her belly to me
