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.
(Thanks to friends Joan and Bella for the great photo)

Watching and Waiting
Spring is here, and I love to run outside but sometimes it's nice just to watch the world go by. (.........Or perhaps wait in silence for my nemesis............)

Zippers, part deux
So, certain people have doubted my zipper opening abilities, so I have included this picture as further proof! Yes, I can really do it. I know there is a need out there in the wide world for zipper openers. I am your doggie for that. Yes, I do still have my studio dog job, but folks - just between you and me, it is a bit boring.

New Year's Resolution
This is my first post for the New Year and I wanted to share one of my most important resolutions. No more pulling, biting, chewing, swallowing of toilet paper! I am serious about this.
Everyone gets mad at me when I do this and I have to look guilty and sad to get them to turn around and be nice again. I am considering a 12-step group if this resolution fails. Or...am I too dependent on the praise of the feeder and the otherone? hmmm......
