In the Dog House

It seems that our obedience classes are NOT making a strong impression on Otis. I have written before about how Otis likes to run around with my slippers. I often end up searching the house to find out where Oti dropped them.

Last night, I looked over and saw that Otis had my slipper in his mouth. This was not a big deal, until I realized that Otis had ripped the rubber sole off my slipper! I yelled at Otis and took the slipper away, but the damage was already done.

My reprimand had little impact. One minute later Otis walked over with a tug toy and nudged me to play with him. I ignored Otis. I know Otis did NOT learn a lesson. When I got home from work, Otis greeted me with Jeff's rubber boot in his mouth!
