Going out at night

I think Milly is scared of the dark when we take her out in the day she is fine but when we go for her night walk she hangs back when we are going and jumps at your legs, but when she knows we are coming home she pulls like mad. Any suggestions because she walks really nice in the day and I don't want to spoil it.

My 2 have never liked the dark (big babies) and they are 12 &8

Moo pulls me home in the evening but thats generally cause I'm dragging her out after she's been asleep on the sofa for a while!

I guess Milly's not used to night walks yet and will be fine with them when she gets used to it

Ha Ha Gem they are all babies aren't they

there's more distractions on a night, car head lights, they rely on there noses more so are often more sensitive to things at night, i used to take Samson near the busy road and just let him sit and watch to desensitize him to the car lights and he's a lot better now

yeh Marty I take her down the main road to the park but I feel sorry for her but I know if I don't take her out she is hyper, she is snoring on the couch as we speak

So is Samson i wish i was a dog

Do your staff's sleep alot cos Milly loves her bed she is like a proper teenager

yeah he has a daft hour about 6pm then that's it big cushion next to radiator till bed time

Oh so it is normal Milly is active but she loves a lie in

lola has a big walk about 3pm till 3 45 then runs riot with the kids till ten when they go up she has some supper (shares watever ive got ) tonite we had toast and marmalade.then crashes on my lap till i go to bed.shes that fast out i picked her up to get to laptop she didnt even murmer lol then she will sleep till i get up at 7.but she doesnt realy sleep in the day she just plays all day

Milly is obv a lazy girl

shes slightly younger than lola though so enjoy it while you can lol
think they like babies more they grow less they sleep

omg don't tell me that when she starts she is wired

Love the united shirt ~Milly needs one only prob is she is my son's dog and he is a spurs fan

Bruiser is terrified of the noise of cars, in fact when we walk him he is fine until we walk up a street where a few cars go past at once, he tries to hind behind me......especially at night time. i try to carry on walking as normal to hope he snaps out of it, but i will try your approach of having him sit and get used to them, thanks
