Troll? I want to pet the troll

I'm doing better and not freaking out as much (still freaking out but not as much) and when I do I step back, chill, and move on. I think I inherited a mild form of the famous family temper and I am vowing to never unleash it on my dog

It is kind of funny though when I'm asking Charlie to sit and then he starts chasing his tail

And I keep reminding myself that when Charlie doesn't sit down etc at the command he is not being disobedient it is a "communication error" and I need to figure out a way to connect with him again. Frustrating but it works. Yesterday on our walk he kept sniffing instead of sitting (we practice basic commands outside) and I just told myself it's not his fault that everything smells good, so i redirected him to a treat and asked him to sit. He also found part of a bong (I do not know where it came from) and wouldn't let it go even for a treat, so I had to grab it from him; I think I know charlie's currency and unfortunately I don't carry it I'm joking

Criosphynx

don't tempt him, he'll camp out on your doorstep like a stray cat

LOL. That sounds like my neighborhood. It reminds me of this time I was walking my old dog, and I look down, and he's walking with a DONUT in his mouth. I'm like WTH? Where did you get that from? He was just walking along like it was normal. I hadn't trained drop it, so I tried to pull it out of his mouth, and he swallowed it WHOLE. He nearly choked himself.

ScentHound

I am shocked that you would think I could be that bad...I would get a room across the street and watch though.

Man...you guys and all the name calling. You need your mouths washed out with soap.
