Today, after we did our commands and ate all the carrots and chicken bites, mom and dad put us in a 3 minute DOWN-STAY. We haven't practiced them in quite some time.
Sometimes when we practice our STAYS, mom likes to use the time to snap a few pictures. She says it is the only time we stay still long enough.
Me and Stanley find the whole thing rather boring. As a matter of fact, we can't even keep our eyes open. Zzzzzzzzzzz . . .

Hi there, Great job on your down stay!!! I realized today that I haven't been working with Hunter enough-I told him to "drop"and he took a long time, so I need to get us back on track. I keep thinking about your neighbors dogs, makes me so sad.
Hope you have a pawsome afternoon.

Sounds like great nappin time to me too!!

Booooring!! When Riley was 3 months old and in her basic obedience class, the trainer told us that at the end of the 8 week class, our dogs would be able to do over a 30 minute down-stay! Sure enough, about halfway through the 8 week class, Riley was doing 30 minute down-stays. I couldn't believe it!
Of course, Riley hates doing down-stays...she'd much rather be on the move! I don't make her do 30 minute ones anymore, but it was very helpful when she was a super energetic/hyper puppy--gave me a bit of a break! :)
Good job, Doods!
Elyse and Riley
We suck at down stay but we do really good at"are you ready to eat supper?"

Dog gone Murphy and Stanley if Mom gave me a bite of chicken I'd do her ironing.

I think I should send my chi's to live with you for awhile - maybe you can train them!
Wow that is a good long stay, it must be very relaxing. I hope you got your goodies.

That is a great way to practise- I will try it out on Dina but I bet she won't sit still long enough. Well done, guys!
Might as well nap if you have to down stay that long. That way you won't get too bored.
Millie & Walter
You guys are awesome doing the proper thingies, I would just wlk away if they tried that with ME!

Pees: just read your comment over at Jazzi's, Dad just about lost his cookies laughing!
Now THAT is a SUPER lunch Schedule, if you ask US.
Wow, three minutes, that is excellent! Worth every bite of chicken I bet!!
You guys must be the best behaved dogs on the blogs! I must get Samson to read your blog a bit more often. Good doggies! And what responsible owners your mom and dad are. It feels so good to know that at least some dogs get the very best of care, love and attention from their moms and dads.
Good job. Looks like you are falling asleep
Benny & Lily
Wow! great staying Doods. I do pretty good with my sit stay. I need to practice my down stay too.

Bailey & Hazel too
Can I come over for lunch some time? I love chicken and carrots. You Doods sure are good at remembering all your school training.
Blessings,

Three minutes? I love chicken more than life itself, but I don't think that I could sit still for THREE ENTIRE MINUTES even for that. You two are SUPER DOODS!!!
Yes for practicing commands. It is very important to do it no matter where ... well carrots and chicken that's PAWSOME. Mom loves soup too and she always eat soup even in the summer.
Hope on your next post you'll have some great news about your not so nice to dogs neighbor. Golden Woofs, Sugar
Well done mates. We do a down stay perfectly at dog school then muck about at home ahahahahaha. It's hilarious to watch mum's face cause we know exactly what she wants, we just like to tease her!! Have a great weekend Stanley and Murphy. No worries, and love, Stella and Rory
Humans! They just have these silly ideas about giving treats. We think 3 minutes is a long time. You should get extra carrots and chicken.
XXXOOO Daisy, Bella & roxy

Mollie and Alfie
