What! Its 5:00 A.M.

All of the clocks have been changed for some time now. At least I thought that all of the clocks had been changed. Not Toby's. Instead of getting me up at 6:00A.M. he is now getting me up at 5:00A.M. I am hoping that soon his internal clock will be with everybody els. I do have to admit. It is so sweet when he wakes me up. I will be laying on my right side and I feel a paw on my cheek. Then I feel these kisses. When I turn over to my left side low and behold Toby is staring at me. It is just so cute. Poor Dave! When Toby gets him up it is with great force. Toby will jump on the bed and then walk all over him. Sometimes thoses paws feel like stakes trying to peirce there way into his body. Sorry Dave!

Toby and I had an obedience class on Thursday night. It went very well. Lots of distractions. I am learning just how I have not been very clear with Toby about who is boss. One thing we have to work on is that when he is told to sit he stays in a seated position. Toby will remain sitting for a while. Then when he is tired he will go into a down. I must have pushed him into the sit position from a down about 50 times that night. He is getting better. He just has to learn that he needs to do what I tell him to do. Not what he wants to do. After all this is why we are doing obedience at this point and not agility.
