Honest!
Just like kids, dogs need training.
So as well as Saturday puppy classes, we are always looking for other opportunities to expand the pup’s learning.
He is very sociable, in fact too sociable, so we’ve been looking for ways to teach him that not everyone wants to be friends!
So the other day, we took him for a long walk and then went to the pub. 🍺
This is a great place for him to experience being ignored, as many people just walk on by.
He was very good, if a little unimpressed with people not even giving him a second glance.
Luckily, there were a few people who did stop and ask if they could say hello, so he had some adoration.
Even one of the waiters who’d been back and forth to the kitchen asked if it was ok to stroke him.
Although he did very well, I think we need to make this a regular lesson!
After all, we need the practice too. 🍷
Talking of which, with 17 years of experience helping businesses with their marketing and advertising legal compliance, I think I’m well-schooled. 🤔
So if you need some help with this, you know where I am.
