Jewel, 

Give us a call and we'll have someone talk this out with you. I know we've
been working with you but this sounds like it's not getting any better.

Subject: [nagdu] Lack of speed

I am getting very frustrated. My guide dog was slowing down to sniff
everything we have been doing the gentle leader for two weeks now, and she
still fights it so much I could walk faster if I stuck my hands in front of
me and walked like a zombie. I have given her several happy walks with it
on, lots of praise and some treats. But when the walk is to get somewhere,
she is constantly making me late. I am sitting at the bus stop, in fact,
because u couldn't get her to walk at a decent speed. I know she can go
faster because I have even power walked with her. I am missing too many
appointments because, though I give her extra time, she won't walk at her
normal speed, instead choosing to crawl along at the speed of a toddler.
What can I do to get her to speed up? I do hup hup. This is getting
ridiculous.
