[nagdu] walking in to objects

[Hannah Chadwick]

Sheila,
Thank you for this post. It's encouraging to read posts from people who
attended the same school as me and has received amazing dogs! I will
continue to work with Princess and I hope it will get better. Maybe as she
ages, she'll mellow out and become more aware of her surroundings. Now, I'm
not saying this is acceptable because it's most certainly not, but I want
the best for both of us so I'll keep working with her, and hopefully she'll
improve as our bonding progresses.
Best, Hannah

Hannah I would agree with you on that one. This is just my opinnion but
there are some things that I can't accept from my dog. In my case I have no
vision at all so I want a dog that will come to me. When I call him I want
him now not ten minutes later. I also wouldn't want a dog that frequently
missed stopping at steps and curbs so I completely understand and agree that
you have reason for concern about running in to objects. I don't think that
I could accept that. I've read your posts and haven't weighed in until now.
Our dogs are from the same school.and I don't know why Princess is doing
this. You need her to be safe so that you can be and will be able to trust
her and yourself. I'm sorry this is so long.
