I have been thinking about how Try's life has been about obedience and what a lovely obedient girl she has been so much of the time--but turning her into a machine and causing her to do the sneaky little LBI things to assert herself.
If she and I are exploring motivation, and I am freeing her up to explore and express her LBE side, then obedience becomes an issue both in the LBI-not-in-the-mood-for-precision sense and in the LBE wheee-I want-to-canter-fast and free mode.
Also as extreme LB as she is, if I am asking for more task-wise and energy-wise and being more tuned in to me--we are surely going to be exploring dominance issues between us. I need to remember that this is a really good thing--not fall back on a normal--shut-er-down-she-must-be-obedient-whether-she-likes-it-or-not-mode.
