Life Ring
Rusky did both its small and big business on the sofa! I was pissed to the max. I almost wanted to strangle it to death with my bare hands. I had a fight with it and endured a few scars. I drove Rusky back to its bed and sat angrily in the living room, waiting for Patrick to arrive. He reached my house at 8: 45 am. The first thing he did was to attach a training leash called a life ring around its neck. He demonstrated how to keep Rusky under control and to restrict its movement. Miraculous. Rusky transformed into a pleasant little puppy. It stopped struggling almost immediately. He suggested that I do not need to cane or scold Rusky any longer. In fact, he said, that is how dog aggression arises. I heeded his words as though it came from God. When I returned from work, I kept it in the kitchen. As usual, it barked for attention. I pulled its leash a couple of times. It laid down silently on the ground. Wow. I am sure God inspired the invention of the life ring!
