Toby's own version of sit and stay
I have been acquiring a small repertoire of practical but impressive tricks. For example, when a treat is involved, I can sit, lie down, and jump up on command, as well as perform any combination of those three commands indefinitely (as long as I can SEE the treat). More impressive to most onlookers is that before I have any meal, I know to lie down and wait for the food bowl to be presented, and then wait until someone says "Ok!" before going to it and starting to eat. However, lately I have gotten it in my head that "lay down" (sic) means simply "do not stand up" rather than "stay in one spot." That means I can still move around as much as I want, as long as I don't stand up! I slide all across the room, out the door and down the hallway. No one can tell me it is wrong, because they are all laughing too hard! Moral of the story: a dog can do whatever it wants as long as it is super cute while doing it!
