Put a halter on Maggie for her walks. It will be easier on her (no tugging on her neck) and she can't slip out of it. Plus if she DOES happen to get away from you, dragging a leash....there is no danger of her hanging herself if she tries to jump a fence or something. In all my years of dog ownership I've only had one dog that would immediately come when called....and would never leave my side....no leash necessary. And that was a toy manchester terrier. I am so happy that Maggie decided to stop and come back to you. That is a HUGE step in the right direction. My little dog I have now will come to me if she gets out of the yard ONLY if there aren't any squirrels around and no dogs around and no people to investigate. Believe it or not, this is better than it was before. LOL. About these war games.....I think maybe the powers that be should give out some sort of vests or hats of a certain color for people to wear that signifies you are NOT part of the war games going on. How scary to be thought of as part of the plan and taken for prisoner or something!! Just a suggestion since I, too, have a dog that lives to run and run…..and RUN.
