Jake Continues to Learn

Jake continues to learn. He usually can let us know when he wants to go outside, but I am always concerned about him and wishing that he could let us know when he wants back in. He has finally done this in a couple of ways. One way is to start barking at anything or nothing. If that doesn't get our attention, he will come to one of our glass doors and "talk" to us quietly. One time Chip left early in the morning and Jake was stuck outside as I was still asleep. Jake came to our bedroom window and "talked" to me until I let him in. I haven't figured out how he knows which window to come to, but he knows which room of the house I am in.

He usually likes about ten minutes of special attention every day. He comes and lets us know that he needs our loving and then when he has had enough, he goes and lies down on one of his many beds and falls asleep.

Jake is now 5 years old and we love and appreciate him more every day---unless he is eating fresh venison and then we refer to him as "Power Dog."
