Your little head will come off in my hands

[lizblackdog]

You know, I've worked out what my trouble with Squish is. It's not that he's dumb - far from it. It's not that he's rebellious. It's not that he's batshit insane (he is, but that's not actually a problem). It's not even that he's easily distracted. It's just that his brain, when outdoors, reverts to its default mode of "will only accept input through nose".

The only training aid I really need with that dog is the ability to emit particular odours at will. If I could just master the art of smelling like a squirrel I'd never need to use his long line again.

(he's spent the morning leaping round the flat like a loony trying to catch a fly that came in. I've spent the morning trying to photograph it. I have five or six nice pictures of his tail and one of a blurred white thing that might be a dog.)

Thank you for the laugh today. I needed it!

I should lend you Squish. He's a comedian and the best cuddler on four legs.
