This pm, we got halfway down the hill when he stopped, dead still, and stayed in Alert Dog position, staring towards the river for nearly a full minute. Then, he suddenly seemed to remember something he needed to do back at the motorhome and took off fast back up the hill.
Dog Owner Rule #1: Never question why your dog has decided to "get the heck out of Dodge" - just follow! LOL!!
A bunch of us were camping at a friend's cabin in the UP of Michigan, and one of the girls wanted to take John's (the cabin owner) Brittany Spaniel for a walk. John said that if the spaniel suddenly turned around - to follow her because she didn't like bears and one was probably in the vicinity!
