Lots of big dogs in the neighborhood and in the park behind us and although we have a leash law, some people believe laws don't apply to them and their dog will charge up to us before I can bend down. Being able to swoop him up in one motion, I believe, has helped save him from injury. |
Something is twigging here Nancy. I believe it was in a workshop for the Canine Athlete.
There is a problem with a
harness that fits incorrectly But I believe it affected the shoulder joint and quite possible the elbows. In otherwords the front of the body..
I'll see if I can dig up my notes.
And yes OP use a collar on walks and a halter with the leash attached to the halter.
