Today's lesson: attempting to out-stubborn a terrier is futile.
Stan has decided that he doesn't want to go for a wee in our garden after it has been raining. Consequently he hasn't had a wee since 7am.
So I took him in the garden, told him to go for a wee...he ignored me and demanded to go back inside. So I thought, I'm not in a rush, I'll just stay out here until he gives in and does a wee, then he can go back inside (he knows this is the deal).
So there I am, 20 mins later, occupying myself reading HHO on my phone, when I look up to see the Terrierist disappearing over the (4ft) wall into next door's garden. Off he went, exploring, whilst I leapt about trying to get him back, swinging between swearing and calling him.
He then proudly did a wee in the middle of their gravel, whilst giving me a smug look.
And then I had to hang upside down over the wall to get him back, because he couldn't jump back over himself. Good job my neighbours are moving on Friday.
