Odin's first trail walk
We took the kids (furry kids) on a trail walk this morning. It was Odin's first trail and he was super!! He can heal nicely, but we let him walk loosely as long as he did not pull.

. She has issues with other dogs, mainly females, but loves her Odin.

Re: Odin's first trail walk
What a good boy! He's lucky to have found you...and you him! (Although I'm envious of well-behaved Odin, I favor those dogs who listen to the beat of another drummer, so I'm in love with Dakota!)
Though I can only hope to become the person who my animals believe I am, the things that they have taught me have made me a better human being. ~~~Sharon~~~

Re: Odin's first trail walk
I'm so glad that you had a nice walk and that Odin didn't jump on the barking bandwagon. I have quit walking my two together because my old dog is so dog reactive and Xena as picked it up.
I wish she could be as stoic as your boy!

Boaz is reactive at times, but when I walk him with my sweet Laekenois, he is totally different and stays calm.Lauren wrote:I'm so glad that you had a nice walk and that Odin didn't jump on the barking bandwagon.
