Dear Ann,
Thanks for your note and anecdote about walking in
woods with ponds, ice, and off-leash dogs. I will still play it safe with our
little pond.
This brings up another question I'd like to raise:
what are some scenarios in which you can walk off-leash, or train Pyrs
to walk off-leash? I hope this isn't too open-ended to warrant some responses;
I'm in a hurry at the moment but am puzzling over how/when to work on off-leash
without expecting a disaster. We live in a wooded area and love to hike in the
Pisgah National Forest. Our other little white Pyr-wanna-be is great off-leash,
and it's so tempting to treat Sugar the same way, or train her to be able to
romp around without running off.
Thanks, Pyr friends,
Suzanne
