I live out in the sticks also. I walk Bonnie on a leash, right down the middle of the road (not very busy). When a car comes, we move to the side of the road. I say "Bonnie a car is coming" "Sit" and we wait til the car has gone past.
Some days if it is not wet, we walk straight down the middle of our 25 acre pasture, and I let her run wild. Towards the end of the walk, I call her over and clip the leash to her harness. I don't trust her when we get too close to the house/road. |
