01/29/24 14:23 Notes from SVPP from last week: Today I walked 6.1 miles along the Los Gatos Creek Trail. I am a trusting boy, so I got leashed up right away and hoped in my walkers’ car. They told me I was a good CALM car traveler! I don’t pull on my leash, but I zig zag trying to explore everything outside the shelter. I am curious with squirrels, but I don’t go nuts about them. After a large dog pulled and barked at me, I was nervous and anxious at other dogs. After that incident, my walkers told me to sit and said FOCUS and showed me a treat so when ever another dog was on the path. I didn’t react anymore. I learned this quickly, so they took me to the Pruneyard where I sat nicely and got a delicious pup cup. Three Words to Describe Me are: TRUSTING FRIENDLY ( I want to say to everyone) CURIOUS ( so much to sniff )
Notes from My Walker: Rex is a really nice gentle and kind dog. He is extremely well behaved with the exception of passing dogs in close proximity. Put him on the side of path and tell him to sit. We showed him a treat and waited for the dog to go by! He caught on quickly. He doesn’t jump up, or bark or do any nipping. He takes treats nicely and after an hour or so, he got very affectionate with us. He is ready for adoption!!!!
