Well it's official.
Hambam is now confidently an off leash walker.
I have waited for this moment for a long time.
Trick was to take him to the same park several times a day so he got over being hyper stimulated / fixated. It worked. Now he doesn't give two shits about anything.. other dogs / kids. So I have upgraded his braincell count to 3, from 2.
Nice. My tip, still keep eyes open for skateboards and electric scooters....took my doggo an extra year after graduating to off lead status before he could see those and not be bothered...
