Poor Kim. Wrote a terrific post, and all of her comments are *still* getting rounded up and imprisoned by the spam filter as if she’s, well, not the lovely and talented Kim.

Oh, she aced puppy kindergarten a couple of years ago; this is remedial education. I think we’re going to do the leash-walking session next.

Harper is too cute - and attending puppy kindergarten no less :) It’s funny picturing her walk around when you turn your back, looking up, and saying ‘what’s the deal?’ She’ll get there.

All Kim’s comments are going to the spam folder. And I thought it was fixed. :(

It’s a miracle! I was going to the store and told her to stay, and she did! Not that I expect the behavior to be repeated, certainly not if both of us are leaving the house.

Hmmm are you sure they aren’t Bichons?? What.. your on the ground…that means it is floor cuddle time doesn’t it??? They too can’t understand why you wouldn’t want their cuteness directly in front of your line of sight.

Yes, the rule of “once.” With Deerhounds, and apparently other breeds as well, if something they want to happen happens a single time, it’s “the way it is.” There is no amount of alternate outcomes or consequences that can change the “rule of once.”

Well, true; that is exactly her opinion.

She doesn’t understand why you would WANT her to stay, when she could be where you are. Wouldn’t that be better?
