[nagdu] Smart dog?

If the dog needed to relieve in a huge way, she may have been looking to
cross to get to a place where she could? I believe I would have directed her
to the post, though she did not go until you told her so, so maybe, probably
it is fine.

hey!
So, weird thing happened today.

To get to our bus stop on our way to work, Jenny and I cross a busy street.
To activate the pedestrian light, there's a post with a button on it, which
is what I have used when training Jenny to find the post consistently.

This morning, we were in a bit of a rush, but Jenny was focused (even though
I found out later she had to relieve in a major way).  We crossed the street
one way, toward the light, then, instead of taking me to the post like I
told her, Jenny went straight to the curb cut and sat down.  I then realized
that the traffic patterns indicated that the light was green and we could go
across the street.

I am still not sure if I should have corrected or redirected jenny to the
post, or praised her for being so forward-thinking...

Thoughts?

Daryl and the forward-thinking Jenny
