I believe her motive is slightly different (speculation of course). She loves to run out to the end of the yard alarm barking at whatever exciting might be going on on our quiet country road. Most times there is nothing. Days when there is nothing fun to look at and the rest of the dogs are chewing sticks or doing other non exciting things, she will look around at them all, then go about halfway out and let out an alarm bark while facing them. The rest of the dogs jump to their feet at which time she spins around and runs toward the corner of the yard with all of them in tow. She then enjoys the run with her buds and loses interest while the rest of them try to figure out what it was they were barking at. <br /><br />Amazing to me what they think up. Amazing that Stormy used the tactic not for entertainment but seemingly to distract and redirect Blondie... Dogs are pretty good "trainers".Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00664043879971610264noreply@blogger.com
