  1. Several months of peaceful co-sleeping broken this morning when Max growled and snapped at me when I (accidentally) woke her.

    A stern no! and she took herself to her crate, just like we’d trained.

    My poor girl. All she wants to do is cuddle, but sometimes her brain won’t let her.

  2. @LAGilman We just finished a year of training with a 3 year old #reactivedog. We’re finally at the place where he’s more often relaxed than crazy. It’s been a long process. Every once in a while, we meet someone who gets it. During this morning’s walk, a woman parked her car near where we were standing. She got out of her car and said, “is he friendly?” It didn’t break my ❤️ to say he isn’t. I realize now that’s who he is. She said “I get it; my dog is reactive, too.” Family.

  3. Living with a #ReactiveDog is lonely, sometimes, because it's hard to share good/bad moments with anyone who hasn't gone through this themselves. "She snarled, but stopped when I told her no" - most people would focus on the fact that she snarled at all, and miss the importance of "but stopped."

    That's not just progress, it's a victory.

  4. This is the face of a little stinker who got all of her boots off within half a block of starting our #walk yesterday. It's my fault; I don't think I tightened them enough, but still. 🤦

  5. In my haste to publish a year-in-review I forgot to include the thing that made me the happiest. Our leash reactive dog made a dog friend ❤️

  6. @tarasovich it's an excellent game...I played religiously for two years, my wife still plays. Tbh the occasions I have played it have dwindled as I now stay home to look after our #ReactiveDog. Dive right in though - there's some good content there!
