And if they get PO'd at the mutt for ringing the bell in the middle of the night they can just let go of the rope. What happened to dogs being OUR servants???

Dogs today are way, way smarter that they were even 40 years ago. Remember the circus dogs of yesteryear? House pets do most of those tricks now without any special training! Selective breeding works wonders.

Dogs are wonderful, they want to please us and learn very quickly. They are loving animals.
