Really loving my Friday walks with Boycie - he’s come so far and I get greeted with kisses now love4.gif

Lovely and connected on his walk - call his name and he’ll look back round at you, really lovely x

Boysie is a dear friend of mine who I’m able to walk a good couple of times in the week.
Boysie is finding it stressful in kennels which is shown by his excitement and lead grabbing when he first leaves the kennel. So keen is he to get to the paddock for a hooly that he clears the way of people :dog_running-186.gif:
However once away from kennels and in a matter of minutes Boysie calms and is a pleasant walk. Where he once pulled the whole walk he now backs off and spends his time mooching and sniffing.
Boysie really takes little notice of other walkers or people near by. Today he and I went into Smallfield and down a byway, he was very good waiting for the road to clear so we could cross’ making sure to watch for my signal. He wasn’t bothered by the barky dog in a garden or the group of men chatting by their vehicles.
Boysie was even making regular eye contact checks and half steps inviting me to give him a head scratch mid walk, which is new.
Boysie is a larger staffie and is wary of people on first meeting but he is actually very people orientated and just wants to trust. He’s already got some good training and just wants a garden he can run about in all day. Very reasonable request I think positivo1.gif

Boycie and I stepped out with Hartley and walker Jacqui yesterday - Hartley was newly neutered so we decided on a road/pavement walk.
I’ve never been on pavements and near traffic with Boycie so I wasn’t sure how it would go - I shouldn’t have worried, Boycie was a star in every way - no worries re traffic at all and nice and relaxed around Hartley (keeping a safe space between them :D )

Here’s some pics from our walk ...

Looks like me and SarahK both love our Boysie time, luckily we don't walk on the same day! Here is a video of a wet and rainy walk last Saturday.

Would you like to walk our lovely dogs too?

I haven't walked Boysie for a while so it was nice to catch up this morning. He was very excited to be getting out but once we were off he was very well behaved, walking very nicely with no pulling.

I missed posting this vid of Boysie walking with Ronnie the other week. They really enjoyed walking together. Both finding each other's company relaxing. I hope we can arrange these two walking together again. I love Boysie to bits. He really has learnt to trust his walker friends. He thrives on this.

Jen came out with Boycie and I a couple of fridays ago - Boycie was delighted to make a new friend and smothered Jen with kisses when she knelt down near the end of our wall :D
