They're really so cute, but I've had it! Max thinks it's a great time to tempt me into a game of "catch me Mommy." This can take a good 20 minutes until I set up enough barriers so that he's cornered and I can grab him.
Terriors love to be chased, but I now have him back on his short leash in the house and I'm teaching him to come when I call. He has to come right near me, sit down for his treat, and then I pick him up to put on his harness. Of course he stops just by the kitchen doorway and I have to pull him to me and push down on his butt to get him to sit, carrying on what a good boy he is.
It worries me because in case there's a fire or an emergency, I really need him to come, no matter what. |
