10/09/24 22:59 Dog Day Out Report: Today I: went to Almaden Lake Park with my friend, and we had such a great time! We took a long walk around the lake. I saw beautiful flowers, watched birds, and enjoyed the lively atmosphere with so many people walking, jogging, and biking. Plus, I met tons of doggie friends along the way! I sniffed a ton of amazing scents, and to top it all off, I got a pup cup at the end and went to a dog and cat store. It was such a fun and relaxing day! Three Words to Describe Me are: Chill, Polite, Gentle Notes from My Walker: Wanda is a beautiful German Shepherd Dog who has been at the shelter for quite a while. I was thrilled to take her out and spend some time together last Saturday. We had a fantastic time!
Before our outing, I’ve walked her during my volunteer shifts for several times and I understood that she was a little bit shy and might feel a little uncomfortable when people touching her (she was super calm and sweet and would not do anything, I just observed from her body language). So I leashed and harnessed her in a side yard at the end of my volunteer shift to make her feel relaxed and comfortable. I distracted her with some tasty treats, and she let me put the collar and harness on without any fuss! She was a little unsure about my car at the beginning. But after I climbed into the back seat, she jumped in without any hesitation! Then she rode beautifully the whole way, sometimes looking out of the window curiously, sometimes lay down to have some rest.
We walked along the lake in the park and she happily sniffed everything. Along the trail, we ran into walkers, joggers, cyclists, and other dog walkers, and Wanda was so polite with everyone! She was not reactive to anything and really calm when we passed by other dogs. She was not interested in the geese and ducks. When a squirrel ran in front of her within a short distance, she was alert for a short moment and did not react or tried to follow the squirrel at all. Most of the time, she just strolled around on a loose leash and enjoyed her time super chill. Wanda was super treat motivated and would take treats nicely with a soft mouth! Before we headed back, we sat together in the back seat and Wanda took a bunch of treat. After that, I pet her gently and she seemed really enjoyed it. Wanda is a wonderful girl. She deserves a loving family! Come and meet Wanda and she’ll definitely melt your heart!
