Got this interesting bit of footage this morning of Toby and Blottie. Blottie had the chew first and then Toby decided he wanted it. I think he thought Blottie would give it up, but he judged the situation wrongly and we had a deadlock. Blottie shows us that she wants the chew more than Toby, even though she is backed in to a corner.

Hi Jane, that is the most wonderful piece of dog behaviour. It just shows how well balanced your little pack is. It was almost comical watching the casual way the others sauntered back and forwards and Smudge watching from the sidelines. If only humans could behave in such a measured way the world would be a better place... no aggression just calm determination, and acceptance. . by the way I see the same look of determination as Blottie in not wanting to give up her chew as I do from Alfies when he sneaks off with another one of my tea towels... he seems to have quite a thing about Tea towels and hates giving them up! Love to you all.
