Keilah's dog biscuits do the trick

Kim and Kris decided that maybe if Duffy had more attention, then he might not be so apt to run away. One afternoon when Keilah was over, the three girls got out the home-made dog biscuits and decided to train Duffy and MacGregor to do tricks. The dogs had already learned sit and stay at an earlier session. The girls were determined to teach the dogs to roll over, beg, and bark. MacGregor quickly learned to beg and bark but could not get the roll over thing going. Duffy got the three new tricks right away.

The girls took the two dogs out to the back yard and opened the gate and leaving the gate open, told the dogs to stay, and then walked around the house out of sight of the dogs. Two then three minutes went by. and no dog appeared. The girls went back to find both of the dogs sitting where they had left them. Maybe the tricks will work, they said. They closed the gate and gave both of the dogs big doggy treats for their good behavior.
