Daytime Freedom

Jo and I are both trying some daytime activities with Jassy which has to be done very carefully because she is such and anxious dog. I walk her at night when there are the least number of things to distract her, and she loves it.

However, with spring not too far away and longer days, I think it is time to start a bit of daylight work. Bugger getting up at 3am to go for a walk in summer.

So today I took her to the offleash park for a run around. We frequent the place regularly late at night so she is familiar with the surrounds. As you can see from her posture she isn't completely at ease but she did find time for a pee and a poo as well as a quick game of chase with me. Tomorrow I will take her ball along.

This is yet another big step forward for Jassy. We both know she won't ever be completely cured of her anxiety but if we can tone it down to a manageable level I will be happy.

TFIF. The weekend is looking like it is going to be busy.
