20. Thank you.

I'm sorry about your dog. I've lost several over the years and it is horrible. What was his name?

I admit I am hypersensitive when I hear the training thing, and I realize how it sounds when I say she won't come when she's called. It's her one wild hair area. When I was really sick last year, she wouldn't leave my side. If I got up to go anywhere in the house, she stuck so close it was actually starting to irritate me, lol. I agree completely with what you're saying about the emotional attachment and the wanting to please, but she is like that in every way except the running, which adds to the frustration.

I have read Woodhouse's book "No Bad Dogs." I will look into Kilcommon's, thanks.

I can't imagine my life without our dogs, although I am hoping for a Roomba for Christmas!
