2. If I did that to my 100-pound Rottie,

I'd be mince-meat when she came in.

3. my dachsies just jump on me. five of them. one might pout and turn

away if I come near them. My old girl used to leave a pile by the
door when we did this. :) I can still hear her snickering.

5. Dogs ain't dumb. They know how to get back at you.

4. My cocker wouldn't take it

He would cry and whimper and yip continuously until I came out.

He's involved in a program where he goes to retirement homes with college kids (I stay home). The first time he went out, after I went back into the house, he cried so much that all my neighbors came out to see what was wrong with him. (Of course he had so much fun that the second time he gave a short backward glance--like "You comin' too?"--and then dashed off with his handler when it was apparent I wasn't coming.)

Once I did let him in, he'd be very affectionate and leap all over me. Unless of course I had left him out in the rain. Then he'd be angry, dry his fur on everything of mine, and go curl up in his kennel.

6. You have a dog?

[shraby]

7. We have a fenced in yard and a pet door.

It works great cause they can come and go at will. With 4 dogs in a raised ranch it sure saves on running up and down the stairs.

The pet door is upstairs and we built a ramp for them off the deck outside the patio door. A covered ramp so in the winter it doesn't get all iced up or full of snow.

10. I'm speaking of Skip's dog Scooby...

My favorite dog in the whole world. Skip's parents are on vaca and I'm staying with him. WOOHOO.

I Was wondering.

8. our dog actually knocks on door

when she wants in. When she has enough of the heat she will bang her head against the door.

9. Our dog pouts too

She pouted when we put a sweater on her, which was necessary because she's a very small breed (weighs less than 5 pounds as an adult) and it can get really cold where we live. She wouldn't come near any of us for days until we took the sweater off. Eventually she finally got used to it. She also did this when she was a puppy and we were introducing her to the leash and harness. She got used to them and now doesn't care, but man she wouldn't even come near us when we first put them on her!! She can pout with the best of them!!

I just plain don't like pouting (not from my dog, my kids or anyone!) so instead of feeling bad I'm more likely to prolong their "suffering" until they get over it! That's just me though ...

11. Oh Duckie.. poor thing..

Its a horrible feeling to get "the look" when they are upset with you. Just kills me to see that. You just can't get back in their good graces fast enough. I don't know what kind of dog you have or his likes and stuff but you do so use it against him. This one dog I had, a dachshund, all you needed was a blanket fresh out of the dryer, throw it over you and he would jump right on you to snuggle down for a nap. Use something your dog loves and BRIBE him.

13. I leave my guys out 14+ hours a day (when I am at work)

No fences and a couple of hundred acres to roam. They love it and I feel that if I were a dog, I would want my freedom too. The only road they get near is a one lane country road with very little traffic.
Sounds like those city dogs are missing out on some fun.
