Glad to hear training was so helpful. Druid Hill courts sounds very interesting. She is great with people and I would have time to ask a dog walker not to enter. Who but me and you want to bring our dogs there anyway?

Exactly. It’s fenced in with only a couple entrances and you can see in every direction pretty far. Tennis courts were a godsend for a while.

The training was helpful to get myself and my dog to a comfortable place moving forward. I did end up working with multiple trainers until I found the right fit. It was pretty difficult to digest the whole process for a bit, I’m happy to talk more directly if you have questions or are curious.

Thank you so much. My girl only has leash issues (like pull my arm out of socket level) and sensitivity to other dogs. Besides that she is a gem. We have a guy who trained our other dog who lives in the burbs with my ex. Did a great job. We tend to pick large dogs that have been at the shelter for a while, so we have been here before. Thanks for your offer of more info. Appreciate the support!

This harness has been a game changer for us. My boys have used several different harnesses, martingales, prongs, gentle leaders - this is the only thing that stopped them in their tracks. Our walks got SO much better when we started using it.
