A week or so ago I started letting Charlie out without tying him, just for short periods to get him used to be off line but staying in the yard. I took this sweet photo of him late this afternoon:
Doesn’t he look innocent just sitting watching the world go by?
Then, I realized what he was doing; he’s waiting a few minutes to bark to come in because when he comes in he gets a reward (treat) for coming. We’ve now done this 5 times in 2 hours. And right now?
Yup, he’s waiting on the next one.
I’m guessing to train a dog you should be smarter than him… **sigh** …got to run, there’s his bark to come in.
Ha ha ha!! My dog Myles is busy training us too:)

When we had our Black Lab, Chert, he would just sit outside in the snow for hours! See some of his posts from his book “My Father’s Greatest Gift: Life Lessons from a Black English Labrador Retriever.”

And yes, he had us trained, too!
