I also said we should have called her Cheese, because that's the only time she comes is when I yell out "cheese".....
had to share...........

Boy does this sound familiar!!! Heck, I even catch myself spelling cheese in front of her and dang, if she don't act like she knows what I am spelling!

Seriously though, it would be great if they would come when called....they are fearless and don't realize that a big dog could grab them up and kill them.

The best way I've discovered to get Sugar to come to me is to call another animal over to be petted. If I start to pet someone else Sugar speeds into my lap. She thinks she's the only one I should be loving on. It's kind of funny though, my cat comes when called more often than Sugar does. I try to convince Sugar that she should come more often than my cat does. She doesn't agree.

Yes, Jeanie too.......if I pet the cat, she jumps up and starts to bark at her....poor Mocha. Hardly gets any mommy time since the little dog came in Cats seem to be ok with it though.

Same problem here -- but the magic word is "Treats!"
