chimerically

Thanks! Good to know that we have a friend with experience with this. :~) I did try a leash the other day, but she started panicking and pulled out of her collar -- I think I'll have to try one of those torso harnesses instead, so it supports her better without choking and doesn't let her pull out of it. She does tend to stick close by us, so if we loosely tie her in the yard and make sure she stays away from the deck and other things she could crawl under, she could probably have some outside time that way.
