What a sweet thing to do! I tried to give @gertu a hand with a gift of Steem.and delegation of SP and some tips. No idea how it effects me but she needs more SP and help to grow otherwise it's useless to stay.
This picture is not the best of all but it is special. Especially because it waits we had several who grabbed your food, whole sandwich if you blinked you eye or even worse before you set the table. Thanks for your respond. 😘💕
Ohhh man, you too? You sound like you really know what you're doing as a dog trainer. Our dogs KNOW certain things are off limits, but when food is involved, they don't care. Like our friend whose parrot would summon the dog: Rosie! Rosie! and drop her parrot feed (sometimes, it was pizza) outside the cage for the dog to claim. Every single time, Rosie would scoot down the wire of the cate and peck Rosie on the head. Ouch. And yet: Every. Single. Time. Rosie would come running for crumbs of pizza followed by a peck on the head. And so our Bailey used to swipe peanut butter sandwiches off the plate on the table if someone dare turn their backs on their food.
Likewise, our neighbor's German Shepherd respected his electric fence. Unless something really exciting got his attention (a deer, maybe). Then he'd suffer the electric shock (a small price to pay, right?) in order to go chase down adventure.
Dog Training... I don't understand how smart K-9 cop dogs are trained to the extent they are. I've read that one in a thousand (maybe fewer) actually pass the testing to see if they'll reward the investiment of time, money, and training.
I love your wolf dogs!
Great story about that parrot. 😅 You wonder if the dog is stupid or doesn't care if it comes to it.
At first I thought the wolves are too stupid to learn but they simply do not care. You can be angry, some are always happy to see you (and food).
But it is easier if they get older. I cannot wait for the day the youngest stops the barking. Theyhave to sit before I give the food. The youngest did it as she stayed with my daughter now we have to teach it again. More freedom here.
Four times I walke away because it refused, gave the food to another but that did not impress it.
If you are really angry and get that message suddenly they remember everything and come to make up with you. Same with the rest. Angry with one? The others wants to be sure you are not with them and even correct the "evil" one.
Thank you for sharing these great stories and happy Sunday to you. 💕
