This one makes me smile Dorothy. Ahh yes. What won’t we do for our beloved pets? It can be hard to learn to deliver the commands and reinforcements consistently, so that you don’t confuse your dog. Been there, done that.

Wonderful, Dorothy!
Yes! There is something funny about control. And how important it seems to be. The haiku captures this nicely.
