Subject: RE: Why are dogs called Blue?
Thanks Sorch! We just got back from 10 days out camping and I have a story for you. Jaeger's main focus is to get back in the camper where it's air conditioned. Sis enjoys the more normal stuff. We were camping at a state park that has leash restrictions so they were on 20 foot leads at camp. I cheated some on that as they are well "street trained" and stick around me pretty close, come when called, etc. Anyway, Jaeger spent most of his time trying anything to get back into the camper and at one point even intentionally pulled rocks from the fire pit we had built so I'd put him inside.

We went to a remote part of the lake that no one ever goes to and after a picnic, I let them off the leads to run and romp. Sissy made a beeline for the lake and happily splashed around and waded much of the shoreline where we were. Jaeger on the other hand IMMEDIATELY went about a quarter of a mile up the hill in the other direction back to the van! We all just cracked up. I called him back and he finally came and laid down and waited til it was time to leave......What a woos!!!
