Ever since Sumathi brought us to Desa Parkcity for a relaxing stroll during the weekend, I had this resolve to bring Jojo out for a walk at the park too one day.
She's approximately 8 months old, and she has been forever cooped up in the apartment or her playpen. I was also told by Ellyn, when she met a poodle the other day, instead of making friends with the poodle, she growled and backed away from it. I think Jojo has difficulties in recognizing her own species, she probably thinks we, humans are her own species.
So, I started off yesterday by tying a leash to her neck and train her to walk in the enclosed living room. She and I struggled to walk as she couldn't stop biting that leash. We couldn't walk properly for a few minutes.
I could feel the tension building up gradually in me, until I exclaimed "stupid girl". Jojo gave me a shocked expression and started walking properly with a leash tied to her neck.
It took her 5 minutes to start walking properly for a few seconds only until she went again, biting the leash.
I concluded our 5-minute first lesson and resumed in my nerve-calming therapy - Grey's Anatomy.

bite leash not as bad as sit down and refuse to walk ley .. try taking her out of the house .. she might be so fascinated with her surroundings that she forgets the leash ..
Ok. I'm just a lil worried if she became too shocked with her new surroundings instead. Then she wouldn't budge at all. Haha.
hehehe .. so what's her reaction? or did u not take her out today? :P
