I expected her to drop the retractable (not the kind that removes fingers!) but knew he would stay with me. Not only did she not drop the leash, HE WALKED AWAY WITH HER!! Down and up the isles out of my sight!!I had to hold back the tears! I was happy for the bond, happy for her ability, astonished by it all!!!
He loves her!!
It is amazing the bond a kid can have with a dog. When my son was in college he bought his first house, and took my dog about half the time. He grew up with the dog and the dog had no idea who was his "master" but I think she preferred my son.
We never worried about our kids when the dog (different dog) was with him as a kid. I have faith the dog would keep him safe.
Abi, you just might have lost your dog forever to the duckling...
