Pretty low key day today, more heeling on our walk and some work on sits, downs and stays while I was chopping veggies for dinner. (Maggie will work for carrots and green peppers.) I've noticed that Maggie increasingly hangs out in a loose heel position when we're walking, which is pretty neat! Though I should add that this is *only* true when we're walking in familiar areas and there aren't a lot of distractions around.
(or anyone!): I'm curious if this chill behavior is likely to automatically transfer over to novel contexts on its own with time, or if there's a way to train so that Maggie doesn't lose her sh*t every time she goes somewhere she hasn't been before...
