I dared to put him in the tub and give him a cold shower AND then I put him in front of the fan and wouldn't allow him to sneak away. I even got LOUD. He does not like when someone gets loud. Especially me.

(and yes, partially this is because his hearing is so sensitive. the guy can HEAR mice. or cheese wrapper. No matter how silent you think you opened that cheese. He KNOWS. And he also knows which wrapper and which cheese. because he never comes when it's a different wrapper. Only when it's cheese.)

When on a walk, Rino will randomly Stop and Look. And i will get annoyed because he stands there for what feels like twenty minutes just looking. Looking at what? I don't know. Maybe ghosts.

And when i'm fed up i'll tell him to move his ass. Loud and clear. Which is not twenty minutes after he stopped. More like one minute later.

But here's the thing: i actually taught him that. I demand it infrequently. Because my silly dog cannot do two things at the same time and has stumbled over his feet or walked into poles because he was looking at something else. Yes. Walking straight up into lamp or fence posts. Because there was a bird somewhere.

And because of that i taught (and tell) him to Stop and Look. Like. There is a command for it.

But i just now realized that he stops to look by himself because of that.
