4th May 2009

Simon and myself went out leaving Tre and Ian together, apparently we were a little concerned to start with as we didn’t know where the others had gone, but we were ok… Strange to only have one person to keep an eye on! I went to Pets at home… and ok, I might have gone a little crazy…. About £100 squids later… we have a harness, more treats, more treats a nice big water bowl a giggle thing, that Tre seems to love… a big bone thing to try to chew… all be it a little big for him. A treat jar, a Kong hide treats inside thing a Kong pulley thing and a squeaky duck toy… don’t panic, some of these things have been put away for now….. we didn’t want too much of a toy overload!




Ian and Simon put up a temporary gate between front and back, as we had been getting on ok with the huskies we put the big lead on and all of us went outside, after leaving the lead very slack we let go. It was fine…. Keeping a close eye on what was going on and informing next door of our plans it all went well! Our encounter with the Jack Russell’s next door, however was not so positive…. We will need to meet them again on a walking encounter, I think, as this would be better!

A few more toys making their way into the garden, Tre was playing with a foam football…. The football is no more!

Good.... Tre was fine with a harness he sat and waited whist it was put on, then taken off. He then came back for the next fitting session. He seems more comfortable in a harness…. I also felt a lot more comfortable taking him for a walk with not feeling like I was choking him as he was pulling away.
