    Yes, most definitely.

    I took a walk around Somerville pick up this the other day.
    Yes I thought so. They have became a nuisance recently frankly. This post was edited by CosmicWunderkind at May 25, 2025 8:58 PM MDT

    MY new dog has never been trained.  He is learning self control.  My neighbor used to own him, he would bark constantly and I mean constantly, it used to drive me crazy, I complained all the time. Every night at 10 pm she would let him out to do his business, just as I was falling asleep, he would bark until she let him back in.  Now he gets a treat if I let him go outside and he doesn't bark. His behavior has improved 75%. Just let him out at 11:30 pm, he did not bark once. He enjoys being called a good boy when he acts right.  He is also learning not to jump on people and bark when they come to the door.  I have a regular visitor who comes once a week and she is helping me teach him manners.  It takes time, I haven't had him very long, he is really trying.

    Wow! Incredible! You learn something new every day. I learn I don't know what I learn because philosophers are never content with only one answer. Morality proctor ship. This post was edited by CosmicWunderkind at May 26, 2025 6:44 PM MDT
