Conversations From the Yard

Autumn: Ready Guys?
Pompei: What are you going ta do?
Texas: YEAH!! YEAH!! ME! ME! WOO WOO!!
Autumn: Go Get it!
Texas: MINE! MINE! I CALL IT!!!! 
Pompei: Uh...what are we supposed to be doing again?
Texas: See ya
Pompei: HEY WAIT FOR ME!!! 
Texas: SIKE!! hAHAHAHA GOTCHA SUCKER!
Pompei: Hey look!  A ball!!

Erin Notes: We do not encourage guide puppies to chase things, so we like to employ a technique we call "Controlled Retrieve". We have the dog in a sit/stay until we release them to go get the object. Pompei is a little clueless in this and was just chasing Texas. :)
