Went to the harbor today to do some counter conditioning to people and dogs. I chose the harbor because there are rarely dogs off lead there. I set Denniss mat right by our car. I also put orange cones up so no one would try to pull into the spot we were sitting in. The yellow tape on the cones says In Training horizontally, and Space, Please vertically. I picked a strategic position where there was a gap between cars that were parked by the water. This way it would be clearer when person entered our field of view, and when they left our field of view. Most people walk on the sidewalk near the waters edge. No one walks on the red brick median. Occasionally someone cuts across the parking lot, but overall this worked well, and no one parked near us or came up to us, which was good. It was a pleasantly boring session, as Dennis soaked up some sun and ate roast beef whenever people or dogs came into view.
