Today I discovered that a jet from a spray bottle is a good reminder to Joni to stop doing naughty things. It doesn't hurt her but gets the message across quickly and effectively. I mean such naughty things as jumping up on my chair when I am eating or when I'm trying to use the laptop on the table. As my chair is also her blue ball station, we have come to a compromise where I can sit on it and she can play with her toys, including her blue ball underneath it. There is room for both of us. Here she is just having fun with Steven in between playing the blue ball game.

Clever dog +Ellie Kennard
I am so glad you like the images of Joni, +Heiko Mahr – she really is so intelligent that she almost has trained herself. And has trained us to do what she wants us to do… as well. 😀
Thanks again +Gisela Heeg Have a great weekend yourself.
Wonderful photo, +Ellie Kennard I wish you a nice weekend …
Oh +Ellie Kennard you should write a book about dog training. Your so good at it.. and the images of Joni alone will sell it.
Oh she did, for sure +Kate Church – unless you experience it yourself, it would be hard to understand how it changes things for the better. 🙂 A small pony! You might be able to saddle him up and go for a ride on him when you get tired!
Mine is almost pony sized now +Ellie Kennard. We found out through a DNA test he is third generation lab/doberman. His temperament is wonderful, which is great, since I don't even have to bend down to pet him. He is quite a character! It also filled the emptiness in the house when he came home. As a service dog in training he can go everywhere I go and always draws a crowd. I hope Joni did the same for you. 🙂
I know you have a wonderful one yourself, +Kate Church – I hope you are well. She has made all the difference to us. 🙂
So happy to see you got a puppy!
Thanks so much +DOG LOVERS Worldwide – as always, your support is greatly appreciated.
Lovely dog and photo! +Ellie Kennard

It is +Janet Patterson so I am seizing the moments as I see them.
Thanks +Ursula Klepper – and it seems as if you had your share of naughty puppies, with your lovely ones (I saw in your blog). Thank you so much. I'm glad you like it.
+tania sonnenfeld – ha ha! You made me laugh with your spray loving cat story! It backfired, as you say. 😀

So cute!
Used a spray bottle on my cats but it kind of backfired after a while, one of them thought it was so much fun "playing" with the water that he would paw the bottle to make me spray him. Reverse psychology?
After a while he moved on to the shower, the fishtank and the kitchen sink though :p
Haha! yes puppies can be naughty for sure! This is a lovely image and "Blue Ball Play Station"! :o)
ррррр
Enjoy these puppy days and puppy antics +Ellie Kennard. Puppydom is so short and way too cute.
I think this might be another winner.
Adorable!
