[Maximo]

The paper roll is ingenious. Great job.

Riley5, be patient with your pup. Don't drag. Make everything a happy, positive experience. Gently coax, use praise and encouragement, but don't talk too much or you will heighten her anxiety and break her focus with constant chatter. Try having someone help by standing ahead of you and your pup with a treat to entice her to move forward.

My Max didn't want to move a muscle when I first put him on the ground outside. I worried that he would end up being an indoor dog. It took about 3-4 days to make it down the driveway. After that, Max was walking a couple miles a day. Each new surface presented challenges: first pavement, then grass, then concrete, brick, and so on.

Don't force anything. Be happy, confident. Use key words like, "Let's go!" and try to move forward.
