Building some confidence with Luna, she hates things that make noise like rustling bags and paper. So an Amazon delivery box has become her enrichment, a few treats thrown inside for her snuffle through and explore. She was initially nervous, but soon began pulling the paper out and climbing into the box. 👏🏻

Luna is usually very reactive walking down a street in Falkirk as a couple of houses have dogs in their back gardens at the gates. We've been spending a lot of time working on keeping Luna engaged with me going past but nothing was really sticking. A couple of days ago I tried using a "watch me" prompt. The video shows today's progress, she wasn't fully engaged but 10x better than she'd usually be, and was loose lead walked the entire way instead of having to keep correcting her into a heal and didn't bark or growl at the garden gates at all. This is a massive step for Luna, as up until about 3 weeks ago we had started to avoid this road completely due to her reactivity around these houses. Very proud mum!

Had a lovely walk with a group of Greyhounds in Livingston yesterday. Luna didn't react to any of the other hounds but did have a bark at a little white fluffy dog passing that was wearing the same jumper.. fashion faux par perhaps?! From Livingston Village centre to the reservoir and back, around 1hour. Lovely little trail.

Had a lovely walk at Dalkeith Country Park today. Starting to give Luna more trust off the lead, her recall is so much better! Had a small hiccup though today, something caught her eye and she gave chase towards a steep drop into a crevice, but she turned right around just as she got to the edge and came bounding back. Lesson learned - not ready for woodland off lead just yet! Good settling session at the cafe with about 10 other dogs wandering about, not a single bark at another dog on our walking route either. Very happy mumma 👏🏻 🐾

Chip settled at a cafe with a spaniel beside him with no reactions or barking! this would never have been possible months ago🥹
