Active Cookie!

In contrast to Cinnamon, Cookie has been enjoying his new diet.



Although it is too early to determine the effect of diet change, I am seeing some difference in Cookie's behaviour.

Though he is still unwilling to walk most of the time, yet he walks with light and happy steps when he does. Usually it is me who has to pull the lead, but he walked eagerly pulling the lead forward this morning.

Don't say pulling the lead is a disobedient behaviour, as it is, for me, a preferable one, as long as he is pulling it forward, not backward.

Before I started using a harness for Cookie after he had an operation for a slipped disk, I used a collar called "Premier Collar", which works like choke chains but is made of nylon tape. I used the collar because an ordinary collar often slipped off Cookie's head when he suddenly stopped walking and pulled the lead backward.

He has always been an unwilling walker since he was a puppy. So, I am very happy to see Cookie walking happily like a puppy!
