[nagdu] walking in to objects

[Julie J.]

Cindy,

Yes exactly!  My closest call occured when there were really high 
winds.  I couldn't hear all that well and when I could it was difficult 
to judge the direction the sound was coming from.

Then there are the people who don't look before turning right on red.  
Or the folks who turn the wrong way onto a one way street.  Or the 
people who let their car warm up in the driveway for 10 minutes, 
deciding to back up without looking the moment you're going by.  Or the 
places where buildings edge the alley so you can't hear the cars until 
you pass the edge of the building and have your toes in the alley.  Oh 
and then there are the parking lots...
You get the idea.  You can be the world's greatest traveler and still 
stuff happens.
Julie

You are crossing; you haven't heard the car coming and then it is upon you; the dog gets in front of you and pushes you  back a little. That's not the fault of the handler. Maybe because of other noise you flat didn't hear the car.
