Small rewards

[emlykate]

I took Katie (the dog) out tonight without putting her on a leash. We walked outside with the flashlight, she wandered around the yard, did her business, and then when I said, "go home" she trotted right back to the back door. Yes!!!!

(Ok, I must be honest, the only reason I was that brave is because it rained all day and I know she hates to get her feet wet, so the chances of her running off into the weeds, yard, woods, etc were pretty slim)
