Jane’s voice echoed as her gigantic yellow lab pulled her down the street. Taking the dog for a walk originally seemed like a good idea, but the dog was forcing her to run, and if she wasn’t careful, she’d soon be dragged. Finally Toby stopped to smell something and Jane was able to catch her breath. Wiping the sweat from her forehead, she decided not to do this again anytime soon. She really should have signed up for those training classes everyone told her about. Toby lifted his leg and peed on something then was ready to explore again. She’d watched the show The Dog Whisperer many times and knew she was supposed to show the dog who was in charge, but Toby wasn’t buying it. “Let’s go home,” she commanded in the firmest tone she could. As she expected, the dog ignored her and dragged her in the direction he wanted to go. She tugged, trying to get him to stop. Then a squirrel ran by and the dog took off running full force. Jane’s legs were moving so fast now she really was worried she was going to fall.
