Want to walk your dog better? Imagine you're the one on a leash, writes MarcBekoff
I recently found just what I was looking for on a poster called"1. Allow your human to tether themselves to you. This keeps them from wondering off or running away. 2. Your human will probably need breaks. Be considerate and stop and sniff often. 3. Bark frequently. Humans have short attention spans. 4. When you go to the bathroom, walk away. If you have trained your human correctly, they will pick it up. Good aerobics. 5. Periodically drag your human as fast as you can.
Ten people were sort of passive and let their dog do what they wanted to do most of the time, and 12 truly let their dog do what the dog wanted to do, one woman allowing her dog to sniff some grass for more than 45 seconds and another letting her dog sit, sniff, and look around for whatever caught the dog's attention.
I also talked with 20 people about the above guide and everyone said it made them think more about how to walk their dogs in the future. They all agreed that thinking of themselves being tethered, or as Marie said,"Being noosed and yanked about," made them reflect on their dog's well-being. It's not surprising that repeatedly yanking dogs by their necks can, in fact, cause significant damage.It's also essential to stop saying"There's nothing there.
I hope that by switching roles and imagining being leashed and pulled here and there with little to no control over your movements or by imagining you're a dog running here and there at a dog park and you're constantly being told not to do something or being commanded to here right now, more progress can be made on having a dog's walk or other exercise period be for them.
