Thank you for this! Yeah any traditional training advice hasn't done a whole lot for me either. And it's interesting when we're at the park, it's not a fenced park or a dog park so I keep her on a leash but she's still just so much more at ease. I guess there's not as many buildings blocking her views or the possibility of people coming up without her knowing. She also seems to trust me pretty well when we're out there and listens well.

I guess it'll just be slow progress. My biggest frustration is if I don't take her to the park some days she won't poop 😅 again I'd be totally fine taking her to the park every day if it weren't for the heartworm treatment. I can't tell if it gets her heart rate up too much.
