I should mention too that Penny was sitting as I was teaching her.
I’ll have to try the “bow” trick. Another fun one I’ve found is “BANG!” where you point your finger like a gun, say “BANG!” and then watch as they roll over on their back. It’s pretty cute  .
Fargo06: I wanted to mention to you that I recently designed a corgi-themed t-shirt that used Fargo as a model. He’s incredibly photogenic. I’ve attached a sample. I hope it’s a compliment to you. |
Oh that is extremely cute!!!
