The diagonal right step for a wide, lagging or rubber necking dog.
Kellie,
ReplyDeleteThis is the step Jessi was demo'ing for you today with Piper.
Roxanne
Thank you! So funny... I've never liked the j-loop position because it's always bruised my left shin bone. That's why I've always carried it high on the right. Much less painful.
ReplyDeleteNow that I actually "get" the right diagonal step while using a j-loop, it is perfectly comfortable and so very effective! Sigh. One. Inch. At. A.Time.
LOL. 1 " @ a ⏰️
