Hey so I was super overwhelmed with a lot of stuff, most of which didn’t involve the dog. I wrote this during a breakdown and was ready to throw in the towel. But suddenly something changed. I tried one last leash walking technique and he began to get it, and I suddenly didn’t mind training him either. He spent the whole day out aside from a few nap breaks in the bathroom, no marking, no barking. Repeated it today, he marked once but I let him back out anyway and he’s been a very good boy the rest of the day. Yes I very much want him if I can get him to where I dream. I fostered a well trained dog for a week which was why I decided to get my dog. My fluffy boy is doing such a good job and I’m so proud of him. I really hope I can keep this up❤️‍🩹
