[nagdu] going off leash

[Cindy Ray]

I think you make a good point, Megan. I am afraid, though, that often we get a little carried away with discussions that end up not being relevant to the problem.

It frustrates me that so many people have to deal with extensive relieving issues upon returning home with new guides.  It took almost two years for me to get my last dog to the point where I knew I could run the trash out or something and she would not have an accident.  Hers was purely behavioral and entirely frustrating!  We are bringing home 2-year-old dogs, they should be able to handle relieving where they are supposed to, for Pete's sake!
