simple games for simpletons
March 29, 2004
My dog is extremely fond of a very simplistic game. He brings over his toy to me and nudges it around until I pick up one side of it. Then we play tug-of-war. After a little while of this, I tell him to sit, which he does in conjunction with releasing his end of the toy. He stays sitting while I count to three, then yell, “Go!” at which point I throw the toy in the air and he leaps for it. After he catches it mid-air or on the ground, he brings it back to me to repeat the process. Heh.
