How can I walk a slow older dog with my younger, active dog?
Hello! My Sheltie was in better health when we took walks. Since I rescued a little chi-mix dog, my Sheltie and I can't take easy normal walks. The little one runs around us and trips me. I have been working with the little one to walk better on a leash. Meanwhile, if I leave the little one at home while the Sheltie and I try to take a walk, the little one goes bonkers. Any advice? Thanks so much!
if your older dog is well behaved on walks, try leashing the 2 dogs together. Let the older one do the teaching, dogs can feel ur energy thru the leash, so if u r the least bit tense, or have anxiety bout the walk the dogs will sense that and it will cause them to be just as anxious.
