training to walk???

[Poly]

When I walk separately they go on the left...

When I walk them together...Luna is on my left and Apollo my right....

Luna does OB so thats the reason she is always on left...

Apollo is just Apollo lol and we do whatever is more comfortable

Joaane your funny
The guns are the military thing, so many years ago, the handlers, would walk the dog left, and carry the weapon on the right, then everyone followed suit, but as you say its whatever is confy.
I would confuse Kane if he was on the right, and would walk into more lamp posts bless him

I believe many years ago, armed forces and police would walk a dog on the left hand side, this left the right hand/arm free for using a weapon, or baton kind of thing, not normal folk, but then society has adopted this method of walking the dogs on the left.
I usually walk Dalton on the left, but if i walk kane too, i have one each side, and Dalton is great walking either side luckily. Then when alone its back to the left lol

I do the exact same
When I walk them seperately they are always on my left side
When I walk together Troy is always on my right and his command is side
He is not fussed and knows heel and side

If you go back along the posts [ page one ] you will find that Faye mention that she though she had heard somewhere that it all came about because the miitary walked dogs on the left in order to hold a weapon in the right hand
