My sister and her husband live in a small town in Saskatchewan~ They are both retired ~ so they enjoy going out for a walk around the town and meet up with the town folks and have a friendly chat ~ or simply enjoy the fresh air and the excercise~ One day as they were walking they saw a huge dog (Max) and they stopped to pet the dog ~ The dog was friendly and seemed to feel at ease with them~so as time went on~ and each time that they walked by that particular place~ the dog would run out to meet them~ and of course~ they patted the dog and it followed them around as they walked~
One day the dog found its way to thier house and began comming to thier house to seemingly visit them~
Now he is a regular visitor~ When they hear a *Woof* or a bang on the door ~ they know that Max is visiting ~ Then they go out ~and toss a ball for the dog~ and the dog has some play time ~ and later goes on his way back home to the acerage where he lives ~ not too far away~
Its amazing ~ that dog ~ is so smart He knows where they live ~and that they so kind ~ and give him so much attention~
I believe that dogs feel kindness~
But the question is ~ Did they train Max to come over to visit ?~ Or has Max trained them~ to come out to play ~when he stops by ? *S*
Kindness really goes a long way ~*S*
