    Hello again. Our Maggie will be 12 weeks old on Saturday and we have been taking two to three walks a day around our neighborhood. She has enjoyed it every time. When she seemed a little timid at times I would treat and we would keep walking. Our walks were short at first and worked up to about 15 mins. We always take the same route at this point so she began to know when we were in the "home stretch" For the last two days I can't even get her to go off our driveway. I haven't pushed it and we have gone back inside at least three times. I shake the treat bag in my pocket but haven't "treated" for just staying put. I know new fears can come up at this point. My question is do I "push" a little bit or just let it go?? Will she just one day decide to go again? :) It has made for some "zoomie" afternoons without our walks. Also I will say that our weather hasn't been the best and I think the day she started it...she didn't like the "slush". Not a dry walk way or a snowy one but a wet slushy one. TIA for any help
