Charlie Sue is so fussy about coming in from the backyard that I have to laugh - and sometimes have to carry her in, even during a cold drizzle. She loves her boyfriends on the other side of the fence.
More than once she has answered my call, stopped short, and gone back to Dustmop and Porchi. Even bacon strips will cease to draw her away. She looks very disappointed in me, too.
However, once we started regular walks, the sign of the dogleash in my hand has always made her run full speed to the backdoor to go on her trip. She was on the leash two days ago and went full speed away when I released it. Late afternoon is warm and absent of cars on the cul de sac. She loves bullet speed, which keeps her in shape for chasing squirrels in the backyard.
