What made you smile today?

Trixie on the walk thos morning. We've been dealing with the slightest bit of dog reactivity(excitement) so I tried her on a new, unrestrictive harness, and added a game when we saw a dog.

when I first saw the dog, I did a quick Uturn and got excited about her following me. Then we did "Trixie, Trixie, SIT! Down" She goes KAPOW" basically throws herself into a lay, tongue hanging out LOL. Treats galore. Looks at dog, and repeat routine.

I know it's a bit high strung....but I cannot get her attention on me in a calm way...and if she gets fixated, she runs in around my legs and trips me. At least this is focused on me, and not the dog
 
We have just had a horror run with sicknesses. Starting last Wednesday Rowan has had daily fevers with abdominal pain. When not febrile he was ok, just a bit... off for the first couple of days. By day 5 we were worrying a bit and took him to the GP for an objective opinion and exam. Of course that cured him and he hasn't had a fever since. He thinks Dr Jennifer fixed him when she touched him tummy. Haha.

Seeing him back to his usual happy self at swimming today definitely made me smile.
