The Saki Good-Dog Project

Saki and Ish think of ways to tear up the lawn--what's left of it.

Saki is on Joan Assignment. Everywhere Joan goes, Saki must follow. No more running in the yard unless Joan’s watching him; no more eating pillows in the sunroom unless Joan’s watching him; no more…. Well, you get the idea.

Saki even has a “play pen” now (which Kyla calls “jail,” but it’s not), so we can all relax for a few minutes at a time and not worry about Saki committing crimes of social etiquette or those involving personal property—the destruction of lawns, pillows, socks, envelopes, clothespins, hoses, etc.

I think this new tactic will work, and it'll make Saki a very good dog, indeed. Like Cesar (Milan) says, a good dog needs affection, discipline, and, what was it?, exercise? Oh, dear. No wonder we can’t get this right.

Best wishes,
Juno
