Once You Accept Who's In Charge

Roll over.
Play dead.
Jump through this hoop.
Jump over that hurdle.
Bark on command.
Now...
Fetch!

You're suppose to bring it back.

'How will I teach my dog to do that? '

Trust me...
If I am able to teach you to do it,
You will be able to teach your dog.
Now...
Bring that stick back.
It gets easier once you accept who's in charge.

'Whew.
This is tough.
You said...
I'm suppose to bring the stick back!
Right? '

Exactly.
