Tracy,

One of the hardest things in the world for me was to make myself turn around
and walk away when Mitzi would rather play chase than obey my silly request
to come.  Nervous breakdown, anyone?  Every now and then, she'll still push
the boundaries just to see if she can get me to run after her.  /lol/  Then
she'll come rabbiting back and skid to a halt in front of me to get her
treat.  That's my girl.  /smile/

My first dog was from GDB, just to show it's not a TSE problem, and, if
she got loose, she'd play catch-me-if-you-can.  She thought it was a great
game.  She could really run, too.  It wasn't that she didn't know what
"come" meant, on or off leash.  But running and being chased was more fun.
 But, if I could get close enough to show her her harness, she'd usually
come back.  I guess work was even more fun than running.
But if I couldn't do that, she'd run for blocks.  It was not a good thing.
Tracy
