He loves games where he has to rely on old, long-dead instincts. Many of our dogs live lives almost stripped of their true canine ways & seem to have a lot of behavioral problems maybe because of it. The more we can let our dogs be dogs part of each day the happier they are.
We do that, too!

It is a bit nightmare-y isn't it when it just rains and rains...big as he is, Harry's a bit of a baby when it comes to getting wet

I too wish there were more indoor places where he could actually run...I don't think the staff at Pets at Home are that happy about Harry taking off around the aisles.... Sally + Harry x
