I’m Dougal. I’m Chief of Security at the kennel of
Talisker’s and Tobermory’s Mummy’s parents.
She’s visiting us this week along with her litter mate and her human
puppies. They’ve been spending every day
chasing lots of other human puppies in floating human carriers. Their Chief of Security, Bone has come too to
make sure that they get properly dried off and warmed up at the end of the day.
I think Talisker and Tobermory
have been a little lax in training their humans. My humans are extremely obedient in
responding to begging, especially my Daddy.
All I have to do is look at him and he gives me food. It doesn’t matter where we are. It even works when they are sitting down at
the table to eat. I tried this with
Talisker and Tobermory’s Mummy, but nothing.
I increased the level of stare and even brought Bone in to help, but
still nothing. I consider begging to be
one of the most important things to teach humans to respond to, but maybe in
California dogs have different standards from those in England.
