"He does now associate my cell phone ring with Dad being out in the garage. Every time it goes off he starts whining and crying and barking at me because he thinks its Dad calling to say he's out in the garage and to let Sky out. Any car horn or train whistle makes him howl which my grandmother and Chip have used against us. When Chip drives by in the morning, if I'm off, he'll beep just so Sky will howl. When my cousin and I take him to walk the green in Lebanon he always makes friends with the other dogs and people. He can never just walk around. He also does this weird stalk thing when he sees other dogs from a distance there. He gets low to the ground and creeps forward kind of like Border Collies do when herding sheep. He's so well behaved. He hasn't ruined anything in the house and he stays off the furniture except when we all leave - then he lies on Dad's bed. He also sometimes thinks he's a lap dog and climbs up in Gram's lap when she sits in the recliner."
