Mum has just finished training my miniature schnauzer named Ilse. And Ilse was heeling along nicely off lead. I also know that Ilse isn’t a one person dog and I’m not bothered by this at all as I think this is more an advantage rather than something to feel annoyed about.

As my mother can do things with Ilse that I find hard to do, like stepping over her and this is done to dogs to make them more steady on the stays. Also because I have never objected to Ilse interacting with others I find when I go out now she accepts it a lot quicker. Mum and I have also been told by people that Ilse is quiet for a miniature schnauzer. And people have also made this remark about our shelties which we no longer have.
