Poor Emma. Maybe she’d do better if you didn’t hide so well. Maybe slip behind a tree but remain only partially hidden. That way she gets the thrill of coming to you but doesn’t feel too worried. Or call too her right away so she knows you’re around even if she can’t see you.

Or maybe hide and seek isn’t her game. We’re all different!

I did that with Emma tonight by accident when we were at the park and she was really upset by it. I think she really thought she lost me =-/

Balancing the computer time with play time can be tough. The screen is a real time suck.

Here’s to always remembering what’s most important. Which means it’s time for me to go for “walkies.”

I hope George isn’t in for a rude awakening as he gets older and finds dogs starting to run faster than he does. 🙁

I like Kristine’s idea of hiding under a blanket too. It’s odd, I used to play a lot more with previous dogs, but I think the reason I don’t play so much now is that I spend too much time sitting in front of the computer when I’m home:( Which is something that can be easily rectified!

Looking forward to reading more ideas for playing.

That’s why nose work is so good. You don’t have to run around a lot and a small house has as many good hiding places as a large one.
