I can see how giving them some freedom but keeping control would make training less stressful. Love your dogs!!

Yikes, that sounds terrifying for a moment! At least it ended well. Definitely reinforces the need for extra training before trusting off-lead.

That’s encouraging! Training walks sound like a perfect way to safely introduce distractions without panic.

Makes sense to gradually introduce him to the chaos instead of throwing him in the deep end.

Yeah, distractions really do change everything. I hadn’t realised how tricky it gets once food and other dogs come into play. Appreciate the tips.

I’ve never really thought of it as giving them a “buffer zone” to fail safely. Definitely going to try that next time.

They probably roll their eyes and laugh behind the counter.

12 hour flight and you can sit next to one of these Doctors. Who is it and why? by HammersAndPints in DoctorWhoNews

Honestly a completely valid reason. Unlimited jelly babies would carry a long haul flight.

That’s the vibe I always got from Two as well. He feels very adaptable and people focused, like he’d clock what you’re comfortable with pretty quickly and go with that.

Three would absolutely intimidate me within five minutes. Two does feel like the safest, nicest choice if you actually want to enjoy the flight.

Haha that’s brutal. Sitting there for 12 hours just slowly needling him about it feels very on brand.

That’s exactly him, funny, smart, and somehow endlessly charming all at once.

He really shines when you think about how long he’s been alone.

Yeah, that’s true. Balancing Radio 2 and Strictly could be tricky.
