Day 3..so far the hardest day, of all... Just to see the progress, I haven't run the dogs this morning, as I did for the first two days.. I decided to take them out, nice and rested, full of energy.. They did great at the doors, not a single sign of aggression, and much less tension, between them... As we walked out of the house, their tails, were both in the middle..and that's a great sign!!! At the park, they practiced walk along each others side, Tyson to Nero's left and right side.. No tension and no aggression, both were very relaxed and tails were in the middle!!! We've also practiced, the down with Tyson, having nero walking pass him, in different directions. Same with Tyson, while Nero was in the down!! No aggression during this excercise, however, when Tyson made an eye contact with Nero, it triggered reaction in Nero! He thrown few side looks, and growls, but haven't shown any will, to attack!!! Tyson remained calm! Then, we walked again, now practicing the turns..and at one point they came face to face, and that drove then into a fight.. I have put them on their sides, let them relax and tried again...on the third attempt, they walked without a problem! Both dogs emptied themselfs on the lead!!

Tyson to Nero' right..still a bit of tension, but much less, compare to yesterday |
|
Tyson to Nero's left..both still tense, showing a bit of avoidance |
|
both tails are in the middle.... |
Overall, I noticed, that today it was Tyson, who had more issues with Nero... Quite few times, he tried to give him dirty looks.. Nero, on the other hand, paid attention to me, and tried to avoid eye contact, with Tyson!!! We will see more, at evening walk and feeding time!!!
Evening walk went great, both dogs were absolutely relaxed!! Best walk in last three days!!!! Feeding went great, too...Both becoming comfortable, around each other...:). Now, all ready to hit the sack...zzz
