[nagdu] Empty chairs at empty tables...Hi:

[Darla Rogers]

Hey Tracy!  You could get arrested for that. <giggle>

I know some schools do teach dogs to find empty seats; I wonder the very
best way to make sure this skill is as fixed as it can be. <smiling>

What I hate most is when I tell the dog to find a seat on the subway and he
finds some guy with his legs wide apart and I'm feeling between them and
feeling a seat and almost sit on the guy.  Very embarrassing.
