Stand-Off

Barney went out for his late-night potty break last night and got into a bit of trouble when a nice, large, black dog walked by. So, in true doggie-class suck-up fashion, we marched straight inside to make him do "push-ups."

Almost 45 minutes later, you could find me standing in the exact same place I was when we started, staring down at him, waiting for him to complete "down"... and him in absolute refusal mode, falling asleep while standing up with his head hitting the wall occasionally in various nod-offs. Occasionally... just one eye would peer open ever so slightly to check to see if I was still there. Dang dog didn't lay down for 40+ minutes.

Strike that "he may be confused" statement our teacher said.

He's freaking stubborn.

He's learning, though, I am too... and I'm worse.
