I took this group for a walk from the land bridge to the blue.bag trail. Cookie was on the longer leash for the entire walk and did very well. We started with Shirley on the short leash to keep everyone together to the shrimpery, which worked out perfectly. I let Shirley off there and switched her for Roxy, since there are a lot of salt workers around. I had to keep Shirley close verbally for the rest of the way but she did listen pretty well. As expected, Roxy wanted to bark at some salt workers when she noticed them, but I didn't let her and kept us moving; nobody else cared at all and stayed with me. Shirley, Cookie, Molly, Daisy and Maggie killed the water; Cookie is already an expert at drinking from the bottle. Everyone stayed together all the way to the gate despite getting barked at by the strays to the south.
