Ledger on the train
Well we headed out for a long walk today down to the next town (about 5 miles away) then out along the canal where we met loads of people and dogs (including a lovely old couple who told me their life story and about the staffy they owned about 15-20 years ago and while we were talking another chap came along with two beautiful staffs) and had a thoroughly nice walk. But then I started to need the loo! it was all kinda in the open and loads of people about and no public loos at any point (it was one of those moments you wish you were a bloke and could nip behind the nearest tree) cross legged I couldn't face the 5 mile walk home so I decided to treat Ledger to his first train ride and get to a toilet a bit quicker.
It was a very busy train and Ledger just sat next to me quietly most unlike him not to want to sit on my knee or be the centre of attention, I was ever so happy with him just a bit miffed at some people who as we were pulling upto the station either dropped their bags on the floor right next to him or virtually stood on his tail I mean what is the need to get so close? I felt like they were in my personal space let alone his! Anyway his perfect behaviour continued even if I was tempted to give him the signal to bark
All in all another good day although during our picnic I noticed one of his broken canines (he only had 1 whole one when I adopted him) is no longer white and he wouldn't let me open his mouth to have a better look so its looking like a trip to the vets is on the cards for tomorrow.

Re: Ledger on the train
I have to say one of my proudest/funny moments was when I took Moo to London.
We did the overground to Waterloo (45 mins, I also needed a wee and left Moo with the women opposite!), and then about 14ish stops on the underground, going through Leister square, it was awesome, had people taking photos.
Couldn't complain about people in my space cause thats whats its like proper busy train!
On the way back we found a seat though and she slept next to me lol Xx

Re: Ledger on the train
Glad to hear Ledger was so well behaved, I guess it's only to be expected though
I hate crowded places and do tent to freak out a little and get a bit Claustrophobic.
Sounds like you both did very well
