Shadow Says

Hello! I am glad to meet youand just about anybody I ever meet. Sometimes at a strangers home or another place I get a little shy, but usually start relaxing when some playing gets going. If my tail is a little tucked under it usually means Im a little uncertain, but I am very willing to please and do what my master / my alpha-person wants me to do.

Around other dogs I love to just fit in. People tell my alpha-person they cant believe Im only a year old, because I am so calm and pleasant. I am pretty big, but I am not rough unless my dog-buddies are all playing hard and everybody is having a rumble romp, chasing each other or a ball. My alpha-person buddy wrestles with me and plays tug-o-war and I chase my favorite ball when somebody throws it. I like to play a lot.

I am curious because I amwell a dog. I like exploring and going for walks. I am a good walker. I will tug you along, but if you just pull back on my leash, quickly and firmly and say; Get back, I will hang beside you.

My alpha-person knows I am pretty smart. My Labrador intelligence and my poodle intelligence is a good blend. He thinks I can learn a lot more word commands, but I know a few pretty well and I like them.

Do your business said friendly encouragingly, means I can and should go pee or poop. Sometimes when Im too curious though my alpha-person says it more sternly.

Sit what can I tell you here?? I will sit.

Stay is a word I like, especially when I sit and you give me a hand-sign like when a policeman halts traffic right near my nose, then I know I need to stay sitting until you tell me to do something else like come.

Come I love this word! It means come get my 6am breakfast or come get my dinner 12 hours after breakfast. It also means come to you if Im thinking about chasing a squirrel or going to meet another dog. I get stubborn sometimes because I just love meeting new friendswell maybe squirrels arent but everybody else is!

Out means I need to clear out of the way or a room thats a little too busy or crowded.

Wanna Go Out? is what my alpha-person says when he thinks I might need to go outside and pee or poopor sometimes just to go play. I usually cock my head and/or perk up my ears and act real interested in going out. Sometimes I will go to the door and stand there near it and my alpha-persons brilliance tells himShadow needs to go out. My alphas are pretty amazing.
