Charlie the Wonderdog

September 24, 2005 · Filed Under Uncategorized 

I am surprised on almost a daily basis about how smart Charlie is. Evidence:

1) He learns commands within a few tries (but he’s a stubborn guy so he doesn’t always do what he’s told) - Berners are supposed to be very intelligent and quick learners
2) He can use his paws in an almost hand-like way. He plays patty-cake, he scratches his nose with both paws at the same time, he will lay on his back and hold his stuffed toys between his paws so he can chew on them, and he will put his paw on your shoulder while you’re both sitting on the couch watching tv like he’s saying “Hey pal, it’s fun hanging out with you”
3) When he got two new toys recently, he had to immediately bring each of them in turn to show to Rainer when he got home as if to say, “Hey, look what I got today, isn’t it cool!”
4) Charlie has a harness for riding in the car that buckles into the seatbelt thingy. Twenty minutes before puppy school, he brought the harness to us and dropped it at our feet, “Let’s go! Let’s go!” was his expression.
