This month we have been attempting to leash train Bruce but attempts so far have been unsuccessful! Here he is trying to hide from us when we tried to put him on a leash!
We can't try for long each time as it will traumatise him if we chase him. It took us so long to gain his trust and get him to where he is today, we don't want to break that trust. So we will try and do it slowly.
He is now much more sociable and will sit and let us pet him and also sometimes approach us for attention. But he just does not want to go on a leash.
Bruce March 2021
He is now much more sociable and will sit and let us pet him and also sometimes approach us for attention. But he just does not want to go on a leash. He is very attached to our Caretaker Ding - Ding is the only one who can pick him up - though thats not easy as he is around 27 kilos! Health wise he has had no problems - in fact he is probably one of the healthiest dogs we have as he never gets sick.
