When passing other dogs on a trail, Roscoe can be a little challenged to behave well. To help him learn his manners, Hu-Dad treated us if we pass other canines respectfully. Now, when Roscoe passes a dog, he turns to Hu-Dad to request his treat. This has extended to dogs not on the trail, but in their own yards. Yesterday morning, Roscoe argued passing a particularly chubby squirrel in a tree was more or less the same thing, so he said a deal was a deal. Where’s my treat?
Read Today's Herd StoryThe Royal Rules
In yesterday’s post about Typhoon avoiding a brushing, some reader comments suggested they might have forgotten the Royal Rules. The Little Prince would like to hold a quick refresher course.

Hu-Dad caught Roscoe and Typhoon in the midst of some Siberian games that are apparently not for inside purposes. Something about speed blah blah blah and watching out for people blah blah blah and not crashing into household objects blah blah blah and those things belong outside blah blah blah. Or something like that. The Little Prince did his best to pretend to be listening. How do you think he did?

A beautiful fall evening finds Hu-Dad sitting on the patio with his camera taking photos of the dogs. Movement out of the corner of his eye catches his attention. He turns to discover he’s the target. Roscoe approaches with determination in his eyes until… POUNCE! Yes, yes, Hu-Dad was a victim of Roscoe hugs. Not a bad way to spend a Saturday evening.

With a stretch of beautiful fall weather, our evenings are still warm enough for the humans to have dinner outside on the patio without building a fire. No need to worry about everything being properly sanitized post-meal, though, because Roscoe was on the job. He worked until not a single morsel could be found. Proof that we are a working breed.
