I hope Gabey will justify your vote of confidence! :) We worked a lot yesterday and he is getting into it I think.Flying Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04652273828990723024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102006698856259727.post-39890546187141841802008-07-30T21:20:00.000-07:002008-07-30T21:20:00.000-07:00I have confidence in him.

I remember being in an obedience class with probably 40 other dogs and the final test was to park our dogs on the sidewalk on one side of the street while all 40 dog owners walk all the way across the street and stand there for 30-seconds, and then call their dogs. I was amazed to see that every dog sat and stayed! It was like there was this canine understanding that this was a most important test and they had to pass it in order to graduate from obedience school. That was back in the day when there were actually streets that cars rarely drove on, so you could actually have 40 people cross the street and have 40 dogs cross it 30-seconds later without anyone getting hit by a car!Nuzzling Muzzleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07649710635013663900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102006698856259727.post-48913099622326681452008-07-30T04:31:00.000-07:002008-07-30T04:31:00.000-07:00Mrs.Mom: "free spirit" is a great phrase for him!...Mrs.Mom: "free spirit" is a great phrase for him!<BR/><BR/>Jester: I love that image of you on the cadet bus, eyes on the stables as you pass!<BR/><BR/>BrownEyed: You give me hope - he will eventually get to me after saying hi hi down the line LOL.<BR/><BR/>Sue: Excellent idea!

If he did manage to stay in one spot as it rolled by, he would be whining so hard and loud that he would probably fall over. <BR/><BR/>Awww-I bet cute little Gabey will come to you...eventually-LOL. I am sure he will mosey over after he has said Hi, Hi, Hi to everyone he can on his way.

Yo...He's definitely too cute for obedience school! Your ball story reminds me of field training though. Whenever we rode the bus somewhere on the Air Force base we had to read out little book of Air Force knowledge. Whenever we drove past the the airfield where lots of planes were parked everyone would try to look at the planes, instead of reading their books, the people in charge would be looking out for people to yell at for not reading. But when we drove past the base stables no one was watching the cadets to see if we were watching the horses, so I didn't get yelled at, lol.Dressage Nomadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03547664899091391963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-102006698856259727.post-10718777755212112832008-07-29T07:48:00.000-07:002008-07-29T07:48:00.000-07:00Oh gosh Gabey is just too cute!
