Dog Issues

So---- dogs are victims of their selection, as are humans too. For me that means that little dopamine squirt I get whenever a treat is near.  Yes, I work for pay.  Some things I do for free - like going in the car, chasing squirrels, hummingbirds and cats.  Ditto with running around in grassy fields.   But "jumping through hoops" ?...... no way in heck I am going to do that without pay.  Here the Feeder is coaxing me on with some marvelous nibblies.  This was the day she brought little hot dog bits (kosher, bien sur). 
It was only our second week here so we will see how it goes.  The Feeder seems to like it, and as long as I get paid,  I am game.
