Do you know what my person spends her weekends doing? Not sharing her food. Not taking me for walks. Not even playing tug-of-war. She sits at her computer and teaches microbiology to college students. I have no idea why.

But, being a nice dog, I help her. I lie down right next to her chair and listen. I know that she is happy that I’ll catch any mistakes. Admittedly, sometimes, I get a little bored and start to snore, but then, so do the students.

I have tried to tell her how to keep them interested, but so far, she has not taken my advice. Are you wondering how? It’s pretty obvious. Give them treats. Works on me every time.
