Entry 378: Touchdown

Yes we both realize that football season is long over, but in our house touchdown has a double meaning. When we first got Bobby from the pound they told us that he was potty trained. Boy did they lie to us on that one. Within the first week Bobby had peed on the carpet numerous times and left us many little "presents" during the day. Lance got pretty frustrated and took it upon himself to potty train the little guy. At first it was a struggle, but eventually Lance got him trained to do his business outside.

Now when Bobby has to use the bathroom, he has a little routine that he goes through. He will first jump at the door and then run to find Lance (he will never go and look for Julie for some reason). Once he finds Lance he will whine until Lance lets him out. Bobby will then run around the yard until he finds the perfect spot and squats (yes we are both aware of the fact that we know way to much about Bobby's bathroom habits). Now for the reason we titled this post touchdown, when Bobby finally does his business we yell touchdown and give him a treat when he runs in all excited. Anyone that says animals are not like your kids have never met our dogs.
