Join me and Ruby on this early morning virtual dog walk that takes in the lovely River Severn as I set off from a car park in Bewdley. High-quality audio was recorded on the River Severn whilst I walked upstream ahead. The video is recorded in stabilised 4k, so I hope you can make the best of that on your screen and internet. We enjoyed many drops down to the river, and Ruby takes a swim and smells just about everything possible during our dog walk together.
Along the walk, we spotted numerous swans, ducks and other wildlife to make the walk peaceful and interesting.
Towards the end, people are out and about more, and you can see some nice self-control from Ruby as I call her in and implement a sit or down stay as joggers, cyclist and other people walked by us. You can begin to see how her behaviour is more settled as she matures and this degree of control, when needed, gives me more and more confidence to let her make more decisions without me - to go slightly further ahead without me right by her side as the recall and basic control with distractions is all greatly improved as a result of consistent dog training. Remember that you're seeing a culmination of 18 months of steady input to get to this point and this is what every pet dog can obtain without too much difficulty.
Please be sure to like and share and also to leave your comments as I experiment a little with these enjoyable dog walks as they take you on a relaxing and enjoyable journey.
