'He was really good"

[mattilda]

That was what my oh said after he had taken Dexter for a walk. The dog is 3 in January and it is the first time he has walked him! Oh yes and we have 3 dogs but he only took Dexter as he "needs training". Apparently he didn't pull on the lead and came back when he was called. I have to wonder who trained him to do that, maybe he is self taught, or maybe it was ME!! Man my hubby drives me crazy.

Hahaha, my Mum said that last week 'Oh wow, B walks to heel and he doesn't pull anymore and he comes back when you call him'.

Yes, petal, I have spent a whole year making him behave like most normal dogs do!!!!!

Hmmmm. I knew I was single for a reason

When we had 4 lurchers/greyhounds they were a bit of handful to walk together especially when they saw a cat

I will always recall how 5'2" little me managed to do it all the time, but 6'3" 17 stone ex-OH could never take all four on his own

To be fair 2 rotties and a ridgeback on leads can be a bit hairy at times! Now Dexter is a big boy I can't walk them on my own anymore but I do take them up into the fields for a good run off the lead. Think taht is where they do all their self training!

Considering they must weigh twice as much as greyhounds do, it must be very interesting taking them out together

But I like the self training idea, oh how I wish mine would do that
