What do ya do with a stubborn Dackel?

FYI, dackel is the German word for dachshund. The one I will be refering to is, of course, my Josie! She is our baby, but has a stubborn steak in her that surfaced this morning. Jose has been faithfully walking Kramer almost every morning, so I thought I would take Josie for a stroll this morning. I didn't get around in time to leave with Jose and Kramer, so I got her all ready and started out with Miss Stubborn. She barely made it a half a block before she stopped dead in her tracks and refused to budge....then preceeded to turn around to head back to the house....well, I thought I could trick her into thinking we were going in the direction of home and just not make the turn and keep going on down the street! That girl knows where she lives and she turned and headed towards home without hesitation! Oh well, I decided I wasn't carrying an overweight dackel down the street, so here I am....defeated, and she's zonked out on the couch (her favorite place to be). I did mix up a mixture of birdseed, peanutbutter and apple for the birds and filled the birdfeeder this morning so I guess I did accomplish something!
Jose's back with Kramer and Josie was happy to see them and even got down off the couch to greet them, but it didn't take her long to hop back up on the couch and resume her nap!
Sorry to have to bore you all with the life and trials of a stubborn dackel, but that's the best I can do this morning folks! Now, don't forget, it's Sunday and you know that's it's the Lord's Day and in all due respect we should acknowledge that by attending chuch and giving Him the praise he so rightly deserves! Give thanks to Him and rejoice in this day! Make it a good day!
reet them, but promptly snuggled down next to Jose on the couch and continued her slumber!
