More Stupid Pet Tricks

I think my dog has learned what I mean when I say 'bye bye'. To her it means 'no walk for you', so when I say it she just looks sad and mopes off. Whenever I do take her for walks I always end up walking so far that she's pretty worn out when it's over, you'd think she'd learn.

She did what I can only describe as a very cat-like thing yesterday. I was holding my arm out, perfectly rigitly, and she started wondering why I wasn't petting her like I'm supposed to, so she sticks her head under my hand, thinking I had forgotten how this process works. But I still didn't move. (driving dogs nuts is half the fun of having them, you see.) So, frustrated, she walks away, but realizes that this is the same as being petted, since my arm was still there. So halfway through she turns right around and goes under in the other direction, and eventually made five full circles in this fashion. Now I just need to make a little scarecrow type thing for her so I can read the newspaper in peace in the morning.
