Dog of Moberly

This is Daisy's summer look - tongue out and panting. This position is "lay" and is prompted by showing a closed hand as if harbouring a treat. There is always hope! Hand signals work well and look impressive. When she is good, people envy us and say how cool it is to have a dog that will do as commanded. They do not realize the hours over months that have gone into her basic obedience. Daisy has improved. She still gets wound up and has to be supervised in the house but she doesn't have potty accidents and she behaves pretty well. Margeaux is guilty of tempting her into bad behavior and Daisy has to be partially forgiven for succumbing to Margeaux's antics. Maybe I can get Dee to write about her swimming and befriending the ducks. When Dee gets back from her Army journey, I may be able to upload the video. It is incredible.
