Well, I have read and found that it is a good idea to train a dog to
"stay" until you have gone out (or in) and then tell them to come.
You are the leader of the pack.

A puppy is a puppy and your puppy did not intend to harm you and
apparently was trying to please/obey you.

I am sorry to hear of your hurt and wish you a speedy recovery. It
sounds like you have a loyal canine friend for many years.

You may wish to solicit a favor or two from any local dog trainer
(those people AMAZE me though I have had dogs for many years).

Regards,

Steve

[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: And thanks for your encouraging words
also. I am going to speak to Dr. Epp (veternarian) or the lady who
grooms pets (Buffy was taken to get a bath a couple days after she
first got here) and see if either of them can recommend a good dog
trainer. Maybe the animal shelter will know of someone. PAT]
