[nagdu] sound beacon

[Rusty Perez]

Hi!
You should begin to use the word home to help your dog associate home
with your house. My dog has a strong will, and sometimes she doesn't
want to go home, so she walks on past, but she knows where home is.
:-)
I also recognize certain cracks in the sidewalk which let me know
we've gone past, certain echoes off of walls, and of course, the sound
of the approaching intersection which let me know where we are.
Good luck!


Rusty
