Break in LDR-A arroyo
|
This morning we had hiked all the way up Left Branch Arroyo and had begun to make our way over to the middle branch when I noticed a guy with a dog coming down from the left branch head. Neither of the Heelers saw them at first, but then Frio picked up on their presence.
Then Willow saw them. When the guy's dog--which seemed friendly--approached, all heck broke loose from my hounds from hell. There was yelping, barking, whining, whimpering and barking again. Oh, and I forgot to mention, incredible pulling on leads. Fortunately the man called his canine away, and my dogs finally settled down.
I really haven't made any headway in training my over-reactive Heelers, especially Willow, who goes ballistic in the presence of other dogs. She was a nightmare when we took them to the vet last week for their rattlesnake vaccinations. Got to figure something out to get them under control.
