Dog

The answer to any question: "It depends on the dog."

I love this. When I get to teach law and ethics, I tell my class that the answer to any legal or ethical question in student affairs is, "It depends." I agree with the quote above because training Lily has (re)taught me that helping her learn and helping me learn is different than it was with Ripley or would be with any other dog.

For example, I tried to teach Ripley not to lick his dog penis in front of people. Whereas with Lily... she has never ever once done that.

I guess I'm learning to be a better dog trainer.
