Laughter is heavily reinforcing!

Very embarrassing walk today. With Benson ( you probably guessed that....) He is a bit full of the joys of spring right now. The group of teenagers sat in a circle, drinking beer, cider and having a lovely picnic was a bit hard to resist and believe me I tried! Benson galloped into the centre of the huddle, grabbed a sossidge to gales of alcohol-fueled laughter! Whilst I was stood rather lamely squeaking a kong tennis ball.....
It was like "oooo dat was fun! Hoomans like me eating dis sossidge!" So he bounced back in and ate 2 more...

Benson and Maxx must be long lost cousins. When we go to an off lead beach we have to try and get the lead on him if we spot anyone sitting in the sand. Groups of people even worse. He just has to jump on them/in the middle of the group and leap and lick everything/everyone. It's so embarrassing

Hehe, yep the grins they get when people laugh! I know it very well!

Solstice was just the same, particularly with groups of teenagers who loved the ' cute' factor. Joy is more cautious so far.........

I am sorry but I snorted a loud laugh when I read it and could imagine the kong ball squeak being drowned out by the laughter!
Benson! Never a dull moment!

Oh goodness, I can just picture that

Good job, Benson. Made them laugh and with the cider and beer, they didn't care a jot about a few lost sausages. You, however, will have appreciated them to the full extent, therefore optimising sausage appreciation.

Labradors must always contribute to the optimisation of sausage appreciation. It is a solemn part of the Labrador Mission Statement.

BENSON!!! You rock, lad.

 

[Hollysdad]

Labradors and picnics. Always a rich source of stories.
