Walking question.... Has anyone seen the commerical with this guy who is talking about walking his dog? He is reminding people that the walks are for the dog. He mentions that we shouldn't pull them and let them sniff all they want, but that is my dilemma. When I walk Gizmo he will sniff everything and not just a little whiff. He wants to stay there and smell and sometimes he wants to lick the bush, ewww. I let him sniff every time and after a while I say let's go and he'll continue to walk. However a lot of times he digs his paws into the ground to stay and I have to pull a little harder. Am I wrong for slightly pulling on him and saying leave it or let's go? When I do pull I feel so guilty and I think of that darn commerical. I'm hoping sniffing so much is a puppy thing cuz he's still so dang curious about EVERYTHING. |
