Another Solo session with Casi today and I could not be prouder of her!🌻
Most of my regular sessions with the farm dogs happen on their 10 acre property, but today Casi headed off on a little adventure beyond the farm — which may genuinely be one of the first times she’s been out exploring somewhere new since she was a puppy (aside from the vet).
She handled it so incredibly well. Super engaged, eager to work, curious about the environment, and still able to stay connected with me while taking in all the new sights, sounds and sniffs. There was a few moments of nervousness in the car, and in proximity to new/strange people but she took it in her stride and came to me in her uncertainty 🥹🌿
For dogs like Casi, these kinds of outings are about so much more than “just a walk.” They build confidence, neutrality, resilience and trust in both themselves and their handler. Watching her relax into the experience and genuinely enjoy herself was such a special thing to witness 🐾
