Isis seemed like a changed dog when I picked her up from the kennel yesterday. Not at first. When we first let her out, she excitedly ran around in circles, but when we got in the car, she sat in the front seat and looked quite forlorn.

She peed on the rug for Rob, but greeted me as usual when I got home from work. Then she spent the rest of the evening plopped down on the floor, snoozing. I had expected that four days of kennel play would wear her out. She puked on the wood laminate some time in the night.

This morning, she was back to her old smiley self and we enjoyed our walk, despite a small amount of pulling.

I'm considering getting a Gentle Leader or a Canny Collar, although neither is endorsed by our trainer. Huh, I wonder what they would say if I tried to use one of those during the on-lead portion of the off-lead test. Wonder how much it would screw up her training to use a Canny Collar on walks, but a prong collar and tab during training.
