I hope you are ok. It sounds as if Millie may need a good girl leash until she learns her manners. I threaten Boston with his good boy leash all the time, and at times I use it so he gets the message.

It gives a person a chance to consider body parts, one at a time, and make sure everything is in working order. As for dogs contributing to chaos, a friend has a truly large Great Pyrenees who can tip her over simply with his affectionate leaning.
