Caron and Deb, DO NOT hold your breath! While she is brilliant, but she
certainly has a mind of her own. With her, it's 'no pay, no work'. I tell her
it's 'no work, no pay'. Lara doesn't believe me. She has never taken the weaning
off food rewards well at all. Someone said to me that she was in the union.
Well, it more like she's the shop steward! I don't think that she will ever get
to her true level. She is not 'trainable' - like some of the robots I have seen,
she has to see a reason. And she doesn't see the point in delayed gratification.
If it's not now, it doesn't count. And if she doesn't want to do something
NOTHING will change her mind. Too much thinking, that's her problem. LOL! But
this is certainly something that she has passed on to her kids. They are all
very switched on, and do things the right way, thank heavens!!!!!

Well done Wendy,
Why is everyone so unkind to dear Lara.
Yes, she is a Weimaraner, Yes she is a longhair but she is a Sinaway too!
We wait for trial results.
