Yesterday was a good day. It was filled with a few uneventful outings (farm, grocery, restaurant) and a couple walks. Of course the weekly ear cleaning.
Today was another puppy training class in Janesville for Echo. Immediately after exitingthe care, Echo was timid and afraid of three large boulders lying near the walking path. We made friends with the rocks and I knew it was not going to be a good day.
Exercise was the name of the game. We walked for an hour along the river. Echo was not walking very good and receiving constant correction. We were trailing the pack and he always wanted to be with the other dogs. He did better when he was in the lead.
Echo understood the reason for the correction; he would immediately return to my side and HEEL. However, he just couldn't help himself. He wanted to be with the other dogs. He reacted much the same way as when Buddy and he are separated on our walks.
Echo also serenaded everyone. He cried and whined A LOT. Overall it was not a good day.
