The educator again told us, six dogs' owners, what the three more important words in training dogs were : "patience, patience, patience". So true !

I'm sure he is right, but I am awfully distractable. I think it might take more than a few months to train me properly.Gerryhttp://torchlakeviews.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221281884226879638.post-89580804072843348872012-01-09T21:21:48.399-04:002012-01-09T21:21:48.399-04:00Carsten, the problem is with the owners and rarely...Carsten, the problem is with the owners and rarely the dogs. <br /><br />As for the bed sleeping, Roswell (the bald cat)sleeps under the covers. <br /><br />Roswell is 7 pounds.

It is best that they have their dog with them so they can practice what they learn right away. <br />BTW, we have a cat (one), and it is possible to have him behave as we want. <br />But it takes l o o o n g time.Carstenhttp://c-langkjaer.dk/wordpressnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221281884226879638.post-173633298675958582012-01-05T11:38:18.006-04:002012-01-05T11:38:18.006-04:00Thanks Patricia, wag, wag, wag, wag ...

Chandler, being the smallest, often got neglected. Though he was the smallest he was the noisiest and would set off the entire pack. I found a retired couple who would give him a good home. He is an only dog and just loving it. I have stayed in touch with them and have met Chandler and his new mom having their daily run at Shubie Park. I miss him but he is so very happy in his new home ... I think I did the right thing.Sybilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944601364218561984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221281884226879638.post-86392429951856078172012-01-05T09:40:01.048-04:002012-01-05T09:40:01.048-04:00Good Girl!
