Options!

My brother, Roger send this along some time ago.  I'm not certain if he was thinking of his "nephew" Henry or his own two pups.  I'm thinking maybe Henry.  His dogs would never be anything other than perfectly well behaved. (Right?)

Henry is with a brand new groomer this afternoon.  It is almost time to go pick him up -- so I thought I'd sneak the photo in while he was not looking.

Back Slide ... Oops!

With visiting guests, Henry has shown some serious backslide on training lessons.  Henry is now one of those irritating little dogs demonstrating unwanted kisses and lap leaps for perfect strangers.  He loves everyone - and everyone is his best friend.

I like his exuberance when I come home.  He is so happy to see me.  He leaps and licks and spins and leaps all over again.  But it is not just me.  Henry is an equal opportunity licker.  It is time for a little remediation.  Some folks do not want to feel the love.

Oh, Dog Whisperer, where are you when I need you? I've heard you have gone to Europe and are dealing with the big boys now.  No more little white fluffy pups showing themselves just a shade off perfect. Sigh. What would take Cesar Milan two minutes to fix will take his bumbling human forever.  Forever with Henry is, fortunately, a fun thing.
