Juno, just got 1 year old. She used to be very stubborn, unfriendly, aggressive to other animals, shy and wouldn’t walk with a leash by any chance…
After a lot of work and exercise she is finally a good dog and family member, today we ran St. Patrick’s race and did great! She let unknown people to pet her, was completely aloof to dogs –that didn’t aggro her- , kept my running speed and even barked “hi†back to her dachshund brother who was with my wife cheering us from the sidewalk.
Only issue was that some runners had a pack of Pomeranians, maybe a club, idk -believe it or not 2 of those runners where big tattooed guys- and those damn “dogs†really made her lose it… its funny because people smile when those vermin try to attack bigger dogs, but it stopped being fun when Juno BARKED and deep growled back, could see the white in the eyes of people.
Anyway, no harm done and my wife and I consider this race a great milestone for Juno.
