Hi, everyone.  I need a little help with Becky again.  We made it through our first month doing pretty well.  For some reason, she is having issues crossing busy streets.  She barely wants to go down the curb.  Usually, she will plant her 60 pounds and will not budge until I coax her.  My trainer said to give a little praise on the down curb and give her super duper praise on the up curb.  This will give her a target to get a lot of praise and an extra treat.  I have been doing this for a week or so.  She is a lot better in residential streets (not really the problem.)  But, the busy intersection crossings at a light is her problem area.  Does anyone have any ideas other than what my trainer told me?  Thanks.
Elise and Becky (soon to cross streets easily)
