It has been a dog’s life for you

In this dog eat dog world

But don’t worry

Every dog has it’s day

Sure we can’t teach old dogs new tricks

But we’ll make it a challenge

I’ll not work you like a dog

I promise you that

Nor will you be in the dog house

We’ll play it easy

In this dog day of summer

It can be really trying!

Let sleeping dogs lie..let's see!

Ok let’s recap….

Those you’ve understood…

Sit!         ( good )

Stay!      ( very good )

Stand!   ( yes )

Fetch!   ( see how it runs)

Down!   ( ok..ok ..you are all over me)

Ok, we need to go for walks, I know!

We’ll firm up on,  let’s go, heel, come, leave it, among others!

We’ll get in touch with Snoopy and get some pointers..

You like Snoopy?

Speak! ( why no answer?)

You like Lassie?

bow..wow!  ( ok, you like Lassie..)

Gosh! ( teaching old dogs new tricks all over again!)
Whew!
