Does your border also insist on being as close to you as possible at all times?
If there is a lap available, she will sit in it.

Post Spay Blues
We are on day eight of spay recovery and it's safe to say we are both over it. Any tips for handling puppy stress and boredom of being confined?
Vet prescribed trazedone which works during the day (sort of), but for some reason the evening dose turns her feral so I won't be giving it to her at night anymore.

Loose leash walking
We love our girl, but she is a struggle with walks. She is 7 months old and so smart. Around home and in quiet places she walks like a dream and knows loose leash walking. On walks it goes out the window. She is always pulling. We have been using high value treats, turning around when she starts to pull, stopping until she comes back to us before moving again.
She LOVES all people and dogs and has a lot of frustration reactivity. This adds to the pulling. Does anyone have any tips that helped with their border? She has been to multiple classes for calmness and beginner obedience. She picks up on tricks instantly but forgets them when it suits her. I know they are terriers and very independent, but id like walks to be more enjoyable for both of us and to eventually be able to run with her.
