I have an 10 month old rescue who goes out with a dog walker 3 times a week for a group walk. The dog walker writes little comments in a book in our house after she has her, which is mostly great but often also has comments about her getting a bit carried away etc. However I got quite a long text today about the dog's behaviour on walks, basically she gets too giddy with other dogs sometimes and pulls when she's on the lead. I am trying to train her with loose lead walking she has daily sessions. She's a very bouncy dog and high energy. But has good recall and zero aggression. But I'm finding I'm a bit stressed about the dog walkers feedback. Ive apologised for her behaviour snd assured I'm doing training as an ongoing thing. I'm scared the dog walker is building up to saying she no longer wants to take my dog out. I am trying to reiterate that she is a teenage dog who still has a lot to learn and will hopefully calm down.
I'm a bit stressed in general mind you and might be paranoid. Is it normal for dog walkers to give this sort of feedback?
