Scribs is so impeccably trained...

Post by BoxerTom »

I open the door and call for her to come in, she stands there and stares at me or walks away. I shut the door, she runs towards it. I open the door and call again, she stops and turns away. I shut the door, she comes closer. I open the door and call, she hesitates, looks back out in the yard, then finally comes in. Am I the greatest dog trainer or what!

This sounds like Shelby's nightly ritual. She will NEVER just come...she always has to trot around the picnic table a few times while I'm holding the door open.

I'm so glad to hear that I'm not the only wonderful dog

trainer who's dog does this! :wink: Mr. Blue's excuse would, no doubt, be that there was a critter or scent of a critter in "his" yard and he has to defend the house against such evil ones.

Scribs must be related to Amanda. After several tries to get her in, she will roll over on her back and turn to jelly. I then carry all 85 pounds of her in the house. The whole time her tail is wagging like crazy, she thinks she is the funniest dog in the world.

lol- that is so funny- I can just picture the 2 of you AM. Amanda has a good game going there with you. I can just see her upside down with her tail wagging!
My sure fire way to get Honey in is to yell "HAMBURGER" - that was they way I got her to come in when she was ready to pounce on a skunk! (The only thing is that you have to follow thru and get the hamburger- :lol: )
