📝 𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀: Behavior (still doesn?t walk on a leash, will army crawl, tail tucked, handler has to carry)
Sprinkle greets me at the kennel door with ears back, whale eyes, and lowering down on her cot. She let me leash her and
did not want to walk till I started walking where she would follow me. She walked loosely to and from the potty yard. Inside
her kennel she can be seen laying on her cot.
Today, Sprinkle remained pancaking with her head down but slowly came to me with low ears and a fast tail wag after I
squatted down to lure her out of her kennel. She refused to walk after leashing her so I placed her back in her kennel.
Noticed that every time I went in, she would lay to expose her belly and would lean on my leg after a little while.
Approaching kennel, Sprinkle cowered down with whaled eyes and low head as I got closer with babytalk. She held a fats
tail wag and came a little closer to me. Noticed that after leashing, dog would just pancake and refuse to walk even after
squatting down and attempting to lure her with treats. I had to carry her into her new kennel in which she slightly squirmed
as well as whined. Once placed back, dog pancaked again in bed with low ears and wagging tail.
Approaching kennel, Sprinkle came to me with a wagging tail, low ears, and extended smile as I babytalked to her. After
leashing, I was able to lure dog a few steps but then dog proceeded to pull back on the leash with a tucked tail several
times. I attempted to do so from the back kennel as well but she refused to walk so I maintained her in the opposite side of
the kennel while I cleaned for the time being. Once carried outside, she held a relaxed body and squinty eyes but would
only take a few steps then remain in place.
I attempted to walk Sprinkle, but she did not want to walk, i carried her outside and once we were outside she started
walking slowly. she presented a wiggly body, wagging tail, soft facial expression.
As I approach the kennel, Sprinkle held a wiggly body, fast wagging tail and soft close mouth. I place the leash on her but
she wouldn't walk out, so I open the divider and once Sprinkle saw it open she ran to the outside kennel.
Tail tucked with the tip of the tail wagging , When leashed she doesn't walk on leash carry to next kennel.
When approaching kennel she army crawled towards the front of kennel while holding her head lowered to the ground
while presenting a smile, tail tucked with the tip of the tail wagging and rolling over exposing her belly. When leashed she
doesn't walk on leash and had to carry into next kennel.
