I said I would run and I did. Well, I tried to. I bought Blitzen a Gentle Leader, it's supposed to be a miracle cure for the pulling, tugging, and disobedient. Not so.
We headed out for our usual three mile route. The first mile, good. The half mile into the park, good. The turnaround in the park, all to hell. He barked at other dogs and starting pulling, that pulling led to him freaking out because of the pressure from the Gentle Leader, which led to more barking and freaking out. Of course, other dogs kept coming and he kept freaking out.
Finally, I just decided to run. He'll have to follow, right? He did, reluctantly. The mile and half back home, not too bad. Maybe he just needs to get used to it. Maybe I just need to run alone...
The hot and frustrating miles in the books for today. More tomorrow.
