We would also play a game where I went on ahead and the dog came with me, then my husband would call him back and he'd go running back to him - then I'd call him and he'd come running to me. That could go on for ages with us two just standing there and him running backwards and forwards between us.

What a good way to give your dog plenty of exercise, think it is a great idea.

I noticed that part ... the little munchkin will sometimes ignore commands if she has her nose in something interesting. A buddy of mine suggested bringing her out to his farm on Wolfe Island, and putting her in the barn to play with the rats ... One good thing, if she takes off, she is stuck on the island.
