  • I had to chase my BIL's dog once and after about 10 minutes of never quite catching up, my BIL told me "You're never gonna catch him out in the open like that; you gotta get him to chase you, then you can lead him where ever you want to go." He caught the dog's eye and starting running in the opposite direction, and sure enough dog started running after him straight back home.

    Thought that was a pretty good trick...almost zen-like.

    • Glad it all ended on a positive note, Malto. Sounds like you have a fun-loving dog on your hands.

      Ours used to run around like that. Luckily it was usually up in the mountains, and we didn't have to worry. I will say the time our Chesapeake Bay retriever had a run in with a skunk was not enjoyable.

      • Both times I've had a wayward dog who wanted to play chase, I simply asked them if they wanted to go "bye bye" and they came running. Car trips > game of chase, apparently. But I imagine Lola might not know that one yet.

            • Wrapping up an enjoyable visit with sister #2, my niece and grand niece. Now on to sister #3 in Pioria.

              The only negative on the trip so far was my car breaking down yesterday, and as fate would have it the repairs cost what I won at the casino...Oh well...easy come easy go.

                            • Peoria is now in the books. The niece wore me out at the Wildlife Prairie Park, but ot was great fun.

                              Then hooked up with Isliar for a quick drink and visit. A very nice guy eager to hook up with fellow Lions fans in the heart of Bear country. Hope our paths cross again.
