Been slacking with posting a bit but…… we’ve still been working! 💪🏽 since I finished my self set 4 week structured walk challenge. We did pretty good and our track progress definitely itself improved over time! Our loose leash walk is 10x better I’d say and overall engagement out on the walk has definitely improved!
Now that I’ve done a restructure in the home (more time in crate to elongate opportunity for unwanted behaviors, and more designated times for “work” and relaxing.) and more structure on the walk I really want to start to tackle her reactivity.
I took her out today and yesterday to the pavilion, usually mild-heavy traffic area, but enough places I can have a good cushion from distractions and get some good work done. If I’m being honest when I went yesterday I thought I had a plan but when I actually got there and started I didn’t feel like I knew what I was doing, or maybe more so I don’t know how to implement why I actually wanted.
I think I was just a little to in my head overall but I think it was a decent session and she had some fun.
Today was a bit easier cause there was no one out cause it SNOWED!!! Just when we think we’re in the clear and into the nice weather Mother Nature has a laugh. Ah well, we were still out there and did some work just walking by the few people and workers that happened to be out.
I got a couple videos from yesterday. I’ll deff be getting some more footage soon!
Good work Maisy! Keep it up girl
