@ladyjaden She has. As I said, Loki was completely unfazed afterwards and after she shook she didn’t have another reaction, even though we walked past people and dogs. She had people cycling past her, kids walking past her, even had an old guy talking to her and just wagged her tail. It was this...

@virtuous77 I do that pretty much every morning - we drive to the beach which is Loki’s favourite place, but on the advice of my behaviourist I’m supposed to be walking her in higher traffic areas to get her used to them. I don’t walk her in these areas every day, so that she can calm down, but...
