Spencer - Guide Dog In Training 🐾

I would forget whistle and lanyard!
.

`Tut, tut

 

[snowbunny]

@Boogie, do you not have a lanyard to go round your neck with the whistle attached?

Haha, I hadn't even noticed that! I'm more likely to leave the lead behind than the whistle

 

[Atemas]

I have my lanyard and whistle attached to my jacket now - just left it there after our camping trip in September - I probably get odd looks when I go shopping in Tesco but who cares!

I don't always use a lanyard because when I send down to pick up poo the whistle dips in or towards the poo. I don't fancy blowing it after that.

Mmm - mine dangles poo-wards often. I like the game of chance... I have one in most coat pockets, but prefer to stick with Old Faithful, whose lanyard is looking a bit skanky now.

I know - haha!!

Luckily my little local town is still a rural backwater, anything goes, no one cares, any old outfit will do!

@Boogie, you only have to put the lanyard round your neck, and there you have your whistle!
@SwampDonkey , you can tuck it in your clothes and avoid your issue!

It's leads I loose, lost one again this morning, my neighbours are used to finding them here there and everywhere!

The thing with Spencer’s walks are that we need different things each time. Lots of trips are to town/restaurants, cafes, art club etc where I’m not wearing dog walking gear. Then I often take him through the park on the way home - whistle needed. So it’s best on the lead.

 

[snowbunny]

Ah, the pooward-dangling whistle! I always put mine in my mouth when I'm picking up, just in case

I'm more likely to forget to take the whistle off than put it on. I often find myself rooting around in the lead-and-collar drawer trying to find it, when it's already around my neck. There have been times I've been to dinner straight from a quick dog walk and only realised I had the whistle on when someone commented.
My husband and I have obviously been together long enough that he doesn't bother looking at me anymore

Haha, yes me too!

I have heard it said that the whistle is like your underwear -- it goes on first and comes off last !

 

[SwampDonkey]

I know I'm going to end up at work with it on at some point.

Spencer is on his holidays as we are off to Heidelberg tomorrow. We miss him already.

He’s settled in no problem.

 

[Lab_adore]

Gorgeous little boy!

 

[Stacia]

Where is Tatze @Boogie? They will miss each other. Have a great time.

 

[Emily_Babbelhund]

I love that he's curled up with Teddy. Sweet boy.

Have a wonderful time in Heidelberg! Eat lots of Lebkuchen and practice your German while ordering beer.
