we generally walk on the right.
True, the "in" and "out" doors are opposite and revolving doors go the
other way. Once you swap left and right in your mind, it just comes
naturally.
I also believe we train dogs in this country to heel on the left
because the British, who probably invented 'heeling' train their dogs to do so. In Britain, then,
two dogs meeting will meet with the humans between them. But, here, the dogs meet head on. We should
be training our dogs to heel on the right.
I would be happy if Mr Ed stayed with me. He seems to think "within
sight" is heel and even then he forgets sometimes if he sees another
dog.
I don't remember the dogs in New Zealand "heeling" all that much
either. It was more like Ed rules, they stayed somewhere close and "no
worries mate". We did see a lot of dogs.
It is funny that dogs seem to be the same all over. Even their mutts
looked like our mutts even if all of the other animals were different.
Breed standards are the same but most of the dogs looked like mutts to
me as soon as you got out of the big city.
Mine heels on the left, as do all those damn dogs on the Thanksgiving dog show.
Ed has a lot more "haul" (ass) than "heel"
