[nagdu] going off leash

[Cindy Ray]

You should get her moving around is she isn't moving or sniffing, and ten minutes isn't that long in the early scheme of things. At TSE they taught to circle the dogs around you and make them move more if they aren't doing anything. They do eventually get it, they really do. Even my little yorkie poo is beginning to get it. And be calm about it (not easy) as if you had all the time in the world. Some dogs this is difficult with for sure, but you will get it done if you just stay the course.
