Cesar lifted up the dogs hind legs like a wheelbarrel effect and the dog walked a few steps then cesar dropped his legs and he walked a little bit on all fours. When the dog tensed up again he lifted up the hind legs again and repeated that untill the dog walked on the leash with all four legs. This was the first time the dog had ever been exploring anywhere but his own yard. He also took him to his rehabilitation center and had him swim on the leash. The owner was able to take him on walks, to be groomed for the first time and to go to the vet for the first time. It was a good episode |
I didnt describe the wheelbarrel effect very good. Cesar lifted the dog up at the back of the stomach so his hind legs were in the air lifted up
