Shae's Daily Walks

Shae continues to do great on his daily walks.    He's up to a block on the walks and every  day he is more confident.  He's really confident on the way back (and probably happy to be heading back) and has a cute little strut to him.  He's met people on the walks; and dogs; seen and heard cars.  All is fine.  The lawnmowers are kind of scary to him and garages opening ; but now he just pauses and looks now.  No trying to run away.   I might even be able to get a picture soon!

I also have struggled with crating him.  So thanks to fellow NR member Blair who is on the New Rattitude Behavoir Modification team gave me good ideas and a great plan to work on his tolerance to being crated.  He eats in the xpen now with no problem; take treats in there and yesterday; laid down on a doggie bed and enjoyed a bully stick (with the door closed) while I crafted for about 30 minutes right next to him.  That was amazing!! He's got a ways to go before he will be comfortable in a crate; but it's pretty amazing how far he's come in a week.
