Brodie

Today's the day ..................... to obey

Brodie is the most wonderfully obedient dog.

This picture was taken after Rob had instructed him to stay. Rob had then thrown his ball way high up into the air and it had landed in the river.  Brodie watched where it was - but didn't move a muscle.  He was waiting for the next command which would allow him to go and retrieve it.

Eventually (Rob thinks it's good training for him to wait an impossibly long time) it came - and he was off like a bullet.  Of course, the ball had drifted a bit downstream but Brodie was on to it in a flash.  He is totally fearless and throws himself from the riverbank into the river without a second thought.  He swam out to where it was, grabbed it in his mouth and swam back - to lay it at Rob's feet.

And he was only too ready and willing to do the whole thing all over again ...........................
