| As you all know I can take Kala out on Saturday and I have to get used to walking two dogs (thats gonna be fun with madam!!) Marley is used to walking on the left as that is what we were told we had to do at dog training. So the question is should I train Kala to walk on the left? is there a reason why its a must if it is?
Sorry if you think this is a stupid question but someone has mentioned it to me today _________________  |

Look forward to hearing all about their walk |

| Yeah jude i was always told to walk the dog on the left but when you have two dogs they cant both be on the left so like lynne i walk the two boys either side of me. Just find a way that suits you hun.  _________________  |

| your taught to walk your dog on the left as thats the norm in the dog world but i actually train mine to walk on both sides as we walk round country lanes a lot i want my dogs on the inside. also competing in agility you work them on both sides.
walk them how you feel comfty hun i walk my lot either two on the left or one each side if i take more they double or triple up lol |
