I got my dog three years ago because I was drunk in a pet store. We had nine cats at the time. The cats started hiding the alcohol after that. In total we have ten cats, a big dog, a bearded dragon lizard and one surviving ant farm ant. I'll be honest with you, I had been drunk in that pet store before. I think the pet store people knew and I think they took advantage. Does anybody else's pet store have a wine section?

My dog Cal is part German Shepard, part black lab, part pit bull and part chow. I believe there was some alcohol involved in his conception.

I've had to train my dog sober. It hasn't been easy.
First of all my dog is a viscious cat eater.

Secondly, training takes up a lot of a pet owners time and attention because animals do not work well independently.

I've tried really hard...

but I don't have a lot of spare time. I have a lizard.

Here's how it's going after three years. Write to me if you'd like some tips. Remember, not all dogs learn at the same rate.
SIT.

COME.

COME.

FETCH.

STAY!

I'm hopeful. I've read some Jack London books so I know when the bond is strong the dog aims to please.

I'll keep you posted. See you at Westminster.
