Upset a dog walker today!!

[hobo]

Took my yearling for a little walk up our private drive and round one of the bends came a spaniel barking at us, lady walker took a while to appear and it took her a while to get it under control. She got the right hump because I called it a horrible doggie in a nice voice just to distract my yearling from the situation. Luckly Summer was very good and hopefully it all counts as training for the future!
The drive is a bridlepath and I thought I was very polite considering. Just thought I would share and I was pleased with Summer for just accepting it.

Clever girl for behaving.

I have the mindset that things like that make them better at accepting things every time they meet something new
