Happy Easter everyone!
Me and Belle had a very scary walk today. We went to a local woods, and I let her off lead as normal. However she is starting to go way too far, and her recall is only effective 9 times out of 10 (Depends what else is about)
Anyway she was running around having a whale of a time, when I heard a car! I wasn't even aware there was a road! So I called her to me but at the same time I saw her... And a car heading straight to her. I was about 50 metres away (Through the trees) and the car beeped and stopped. I called her again and she came to me, the car driver was shouting and swearing all kind of obscenties at me (As if I wasn't feeling bad enought!) It was a tiny, tiny country lane but I shudder to think what could have been! She went straight back on the lead and I think I'll go back to using a long line for a while!
I've felt so awful all day, my nerves are shot!
