Sometimes I just test Cooper's training a little bit. I like to make sure he realizes that no matter what, rules are rules.
He really wanted to get down and sniff this friendly looking dog, but I told him 'no'.
I feel like it's really important for him to be flawless in following the rules. With us being in all kinds of interesting places with great things to see, he NEEDS to know he is to stay where he is told to stay.
Otherwise he could run into a bad situation before I could stop him. This would be unacceptable to me. I love Cooper. If I have to be 'mean' to him once in a while to make sure his training is sure, I'll do it with confidence.
