Here is the link: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=92582857<br /><br />Bill Berloni published a book last year chronicling his 30+ years training dogs for Broadway shows, movies, commercials, etc. and his "stars" are rescues found adopted from animal shelters---one such example being "Sandy" the dog from the "Annie" musical which was the first dog he trained when he was a college student.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2996513531142597091.post-39239791945296427482009-09-10T11:04:21.168-05:002009-09-10T11:04:21.168-05:00Patience would you please visit my post for 9/10/0...Patience would you please visit my post for 9/10/09.

My best one was the beginning ski squat. Do your hounds ever turn on each other when they encounter another dog or critter on walks? That was always a great problem--three trying to kill each other. I tried all different kinds of linking leashes, but not the round-the waister belt. Glad you didn't waste a lot of time pantenting your invention, Patience! :-) Now it's just casual walkings with one laid back old gentleman.<br /><br />Not related, but you've got me remembering the time my walking buddy S fell into a thistle patch when climbing over an English farm fence when we were walking. to this day I still think it's funnier than she does. . .Fayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10227397761350236459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2996513531142597091.post-7292305990038978852009-09-09T10:23:40.484-05:002009-09-09T10:23:40.484-05:00Patience-please,
