[Dailydrool] walking two bassets and the sad passings

[beckyandgeorgie at shaw.ca]

Things are so sad these days.
Re walking two bassets.  I had one basset and one fiesty airedale.   In 
desparation I
made a version of the halter called a promise version and I also used a 
coupler.
The halter was successful after they both did their bucking for first time 
and
then it worked.
The coupler didn't work as good cuz the Airedale was bigger and Dazey/Becky
had their own idea of where they were going.
However the promise collar worked wonderfully and after awhile they
didn't even notice it on but they had to go where the head went.
One time I got home from hospital and this lady insisted on walking Miss 
Becky
I said no but she did anyway. She was away for awhile and when she got back
she said 'she needs training'.  Apparently she dragged the poor soul as they 
do
and she was surprised cuz she walked nicely with me.  Well that was cuz she
had the threat of the promise collar.  It really does work
