This is the first photographic evidence of a trick Shade has trained so hard to learn. Yes, that is my checkbook. No, I will not use it to buy him his own gold medal.

Shade balances my checkbook

Chuck has been a big inspiration to both of us.

Now, if I could only teach him how to pause the maniacal barking next time I order pizza so I can just grab my hot pizza and tip the guy before he barks my brains scrambled.

    When I had dogs, the best tricks we could do with them were only to make them scared enough never to leave us. However, the whole ‘can you get the slippers?’ trick did prove useful until they decided that the trick should be ‘can you get the slippers, salivate on them, make us play with you for an hour until we get them back as shards of what they used to be?’.

    Oh, and trust me, the barking never stops.
