You Know You're a Dog Training Family When...

Drake pets the dead birds we use for training the dogs! Crew won't. He kind of thinks they're gross. But has gotten over it a little bit. He'll at least hold them now. Drakey just loves them though! It's funny. And yes, that's Crew wearing Rett's old rodeo boots in the background! He loves them and says they stink like bull poop! Silly boy!




And here they are trying to catch up to Rett while he's setting up for a training session with Zink. They think they are just as big as we are. I try to tell them it's a long way out and that they'll have to come all the way back, but they just want to be with their Dad!





I guess are kids are highly influenced by their parents. These boys love our dogs. They would play with them all day long if we let them. Last night when Rett got home, they were playing in a dog crate outside. They asked Rett to close it for them and we told them they wouldn't be able to get out if we closed it. They didn't care, but we didn't close it. We've had to try to teach them through the years that dog food is really meant for dogs, not little boys. And that drinking out of the same dish as a dog is kind of gross. They don't mind kisses on the face from dogs. When they pretend play they are usually dogs. They choose to be "Zink" or "Bullet" most of the time. (Bullet is a friends dog they saw when he was a puppy and they think he's pretty cool. Mostly because of his name, I think.) Anyway, we're glad they love dogs as much as their parents do!
