Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for January 25, 2023

Your training appears complete

Scooter has been teaching that trick to all of the dogs on Ballard St.

He spends a lot of his free time on the docks. The sailors love teaching him new knots, and he enjoys the odd fish treat.

Surely that flying squirrel had something to do with it…

Pretty impressive, Sonja. Now you’d better free your ankle so you can go after him.

Would you believe that this isn’t this doggie’s first rodeo?

Scooter’s a keeper.

Scooter has always been knotty.

Nicely done, pup!

Sonja was no match for Scooter, he knows.. stuff.

Sonja is beginning to feel that the tied is not turning in her favor.

A tree-tis by the famed scholar, Scooter, PHD of Canine Escapes at Liberty University, one would suppose…

Where did she learn to stand there and watch him do it?

Scooter has been doing this for years but Sonja just had and early lucid moment. He will be back soon and a little tug will get her going once again

It’s a Lassie lasso!!!
