Boy if there's something good going on outside like (squirrels) they hear nothing I have to say or they turn around and look at me as if to say"what did you say something?" Were busy! But for the most part they do listen.

I thought you were talking about husbands.

My Rudy comes when I call him when he's outside but Lucky is the one with "selective" hearing. Although I have to give him credit, we haven't had him since he was a puppy, we've only had him a year now, so he's still learning.

Mine are perfect until we go outside. Then they have selective hearing. Rotten things. I hate it when I say okay lets go in, and they both look up at me like "ha please, who do you think your talking to?" Makes me so mad!
