Session 2
If outside is still too stressful I'm back to working inside and drifting out. I left the front door open, and started from the kitchen. He was whining and straining on the lead. So I just stood there. When the whining stopped and he sat I took a tiny step forward. Boing. Stood there and waited. and repeat. By three metres to the outside he realised and loose lead walked to the outside. He sat and was rewarded, he looked at me, he was rewarded. Lots of rewards for sitting on the step and for looking at me. Back inside and we did the whole walk again from the kitchen to the outside and sit. I did this three times and then stopped.
