We took off Odin’s halter and tied him to an extra long leash anchored to a tree. He’s never been on an extra long lead before, so he immediately sprinted towards another dog and made a very confused yelp when his runway ran out

@0xabad1dea I shouldn't laugh, but I did. Sorry Odin.

@0xabad1dea is he not trustable off leash yet?
Show threadabadidea1d ago
@me outdoor recall is his biggest weakness, and someone else’s Easter party is not the time to practice

@0xabad1dea he is still a good boy, though, a decent Entity

@0xabad1dea I worry more about the tree.

Good long leash! Bailey was a fraction Odin's size, rottie-pibble cross, but the first time she hit the end of her long leash the leash and anchor both broke.

Has he gotten used to it, I hope? I want Odin always happy and never yelping. I loves him.

@silvermoon82 oh he didn’t run it out again, he just didn’t realize long leash was real until it happened

Oh good!

@0xabad1dea may we assume that the tree is ok?

@0xabad1dea Hopefully the leash is sturdy. We learned not to trust leather leashes that have rivets. They are a guaranteed point of failure. Or first RR snipped it apart while tethered to a tree after he jumped after a cat.

@afx Odin is not a super pully dog, he just didn’t understand yet that he was on a long leash until it pulled. Once he understood, he didn’t pull it taut again

@0xabad1dea they make little bungie segments you can add onto the end of the lead so the impulse when it runs out isn’t so violent, btw

@jason this was someone else’s leash and the sort of thing that might come up once a year. He’s not a pully dog, he just didn’t know long leads are real yet

@0xabad1dea He then uprooted the tree & carried it like a stick?
