"Oh WOW, a dog!"...this from a very cute little boy of about five. "Can I pet?"
"Um, no, I'm sorry. He's working right now," I smile to soften the blow.
"Oh -- he BITES." (With a very serious look.)
"No, he doesn't bite...he's just working right now. It's just like school, only for dogs."
"And you're his teacher?" (...his eyes huge in amazement...)
"Yes, that's right!"
"Oh...that is AWESOME!!"...with a big smile.
Oh yes, I do get tired of the questions sometimes...but then there are fun moments too!

I find the kids are pretty awesome, they totally get it!
Thank you for your kind comments on our blog, so very appreciated! :)
That is so cute! I bet it is hard to help little ones understand they have to resist the temptation to pet.
I'll have to use that "school for dogs" one next time.
Many questions, answers and smiles! Love the conversations we have - this is a cute one!
Hi Alfie! I've been a bit out of commission lately, but it's really nice to get to know you - I wanted to THANK you for your cool award - that was sweet and very generous in spirit! Sounds like this kid "Got it" eventually - what you do is amazing - look forward to getting to know you better!
Hugs xo
