Her reactivity was about to move heaven and earth today. We keep running into the same medium-sized rowdy terrier on our block during out walks, and it hates her. That thing is spitting, snarling, and maybe Nina can pass calm dogs, but she doesn't take attitude from dogs that are completely off the hook and she ends up off the hook.
We were like...20 feet from the house so I was not about to turn all the way back up the street and hope we'd avoid them, so I decided to forge on.
Now I have complete faith in the strength of this leather leash. And there was the tangible reason I use a 2" collar. She was digging in enough that I couldn't take a step without being whirled into orbit. Don't know why they react to each other like that but obviously I'm avoiding crossing even parallel paths with that terrier from now on. Don't want any set backs.
