| Repetition Works!! Ever since Otis was little, I would flip him over and inspect his "goods" to see if there were fleas hiding around there. Well, I started incorparting the phrase "lemme see if you have a flea" when I would flip him over. Now I discovered if I say "lemme see if you have a flea," he lays on his back and exposes his belly for me to check for fleas on command! It's sooo funny! I don't ahve to flip him over anymore! He does it by himself! I wanted to reward him, and I didn't anything to give him except for avocado, and I found out he LOVES it! |

| How cute! Gracie and Sampson listen to phrases too. Their latest favorites are "Where's Grammie?" and "Where's Daddy?" When I ask where Grammie is, they fly to the front door because they know they are going to get in the car and go see their grandmother. When I ask where daddy is, they run down the stairs to the basement to see him. If I ask them if they want to "look out?", that means they run to the back door and go out on the deck to look at stuff. Aren't dogs great?
