Flashback Friday

 Well, where shall we return to today?  Well Marley was allowed out on a leash for the first time...

He was not really thrilled about the leash, but he was calm and accepted it...

Lots of exploration about the outdoors.

Iza accompanied him for encouragement.  She told him it was only temporary until TBT was sure he knew the borders of the yard.  

He was pretty excited about the entire experience.

Lots of things to sniff and remember...

He enjoyed sniffing live plants.

He probably didn't know what the Skeeter Marker meant.

But he was interested in the pond.

He discovered one on the borders to the places The Mews can go.

He had a great time outside, but I didn't want to over-stimulate him.  He got gradually more time outside.  And when he seemed to understand our territory, I let him out off-leash (following him everywhere, just "in case").  He never tried to jump the fence.  His understanding of "territory" has always been perfect.
