I considered it a complement….,Max is over, we are back from our walk..We are lying in the shade of last years now defunked garden,.. Daddog comes out, Yells “Fresh Water, come and get it” Max chooses to stay with me, I told him, He could go if he wanted,, and this was not to be considered some kind of test, If he would rather leave my side for a cool drink , Hey he’s a big boy, We all have choices to make in life…. like I said I considered it a complement.. Paw wrappin round never entered my mind
