Sounds like you might get more accomplished this way and they will also be even more comfortable with you. Oh, yes, also like Mary (Mardelin) mentioned, don't forget those mints!
Just jump in there and have fun. Experience is the best teacher. |
I dont know the name of the leash, but i can describe it to you... It has one single loop (the metal loop) It slips over the dogs neck and the metal loop is on the top of the neck, and the rest is just thin cord like lead....im guessing its about 4ft. Which is fine while im walking, because im not very tall and the dog is close to the ground. But it seems too short when the dog is up on the table.
Ive only got one day left to prepare, and tomorrow im going to try to spend as much time as i can with the dogs, but keeping em over night is a good idea.
