After the somewhat tentative introduction to his collar and lead, it was now time to put Samuel's restraint to the test. This wasn't his first time on the lead. He had already traveled up the road and back several times, swerving to avoid lampposts and stopping to sniff at every opportunity. A tumble had been narrowly avoided on numerous occasions as his love of crossing paths produced a tangled mess of legs and lead.
This particular trip was different. Samuel was going to the park. There were ducks there, and difficult terrain to navigate. An uphill walk stood before him and the expanse of green. How would he cope?
Well, fine it turned out. Though there were no humorous encounters with any proud water fowl, the trip to Thompson Park was comical, if only for the way Samuel insisted on walking us there.
