Ben and I have been through the obedience class series three times. (For Ben, not for me.) I know for sure that Ben knows basic obedience, he just is never inclined to use his skills without serious motivation. For the most part, I can only get Ben to sit if I give him a treat. Now, anytime Ben practices his sits, he considers it an event and thinks the effort deserves a reward. So when Darin was prepping some t-bones, Ben decided to practice sitting as close as he could to the counter, and the steaks, to see if it would payoff. It looks like he has his nose in the corner.
The steaks must just smell fantastic to him, and he's soooo close. If we would have left him alone, the steaks would have magically disappeared and without his knowledge, of course. What steaks?
What a good sit. He just can't sit any closer without jumping on the counter. T-bone steak worthy though? Not quite. Such a silly puppy!
