Anna and Sampson Part II




Today I caught Anna telling Sampson to sit. She was even using the hand motions that I use when I ask him to sit. Did he sit when she asked...yes he did. I think that the food in her hand was the ultimate motivation for him. Anna and Sampson have developed a very special friendship over the past 18 months. At first it was very rocky...the addition of Anna into our family meant that Sampson was no longer second in charge. He struggled...we struggled. Now that Anna is a source of food and loves throwing the ball I think that Sampson likes having her around. I know that Anna loves her big yellow dog. She loves to snuggle with him, ride him and she loves to tell him what to do.
