Urban Dog Living - Intro and Doorways

Per wikipedia:
An urban area is characterized by higher population density and vast human features in comparison to areas surrounding it. Urban areas may be cities or towns.

Living with a dog in an urban environment can be a pleasure - if you are actively involved in training and handling your dog.  If you just think any pet-dog can pass off as a city dweller, read on.   Although you know your dog is nice, sweet, and loving the person coming down the street doesn't.  The extreme tension on the leash and you skipping along to keep up doesn't give the best impression.

Tip for today:
When entering or exiting your building (assuming you live in a condo or apartment with other people) make sure your dog follows you in the door.   This means every door.  Not only does this allow you to make sure no one is coming who could be startled by your dog, but it also allows you time to control you dog should another dog be on the other side.
