Then, about a year ago she decided I *needed* my own dog. So, I ended up
with Sam Adams. He's a black Lab -- going on 10 months - 90 lbs and a
complete juvenile delinquent. No class at all. He burbs, farts, snores
and basically does anything he wants except listen to me.

sounds like he needs to go to doggie boot camp. ill be glad to put
him through doggie boot camp for you no charge.

Tom, if you can teach him not to burb, fart and snore, then Mrs.E. will pay
you double to send me to your school.


although, for a guy dog, burping, farting and snoring just comes with
the terrority.

Yep. He thinks he's just "one of the guys". I have to admit though, he's
really a cool dog.


i can do something about the listening to you part though. :)

Last night he really ****ed me off. It was the first time I forgot about
the "positive reinforcement concept and just let him have it. He decided
that outdoors was cool at 11pm and would not come into the house when called
for anything. By the time I got my shoes and jacket on I think he was
reconsidering. Right now he's laying by my feet as if nothing ever
happened.
