I've had to shove their butts outside and quickly close the door behind.

It's just a bonus when he discovers that you find it really annoying, because then he gets even more attention.<br /><br />For a bit of payback you could clean his ears and give him a bath when he least expects it.Mrs. S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05303378310653171627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-72632532733863809112013-01-25T13:18:32.209-06:002013-01-25T13:18:32.209-06:00@ Wing: Yeah, I don't pay bribes. And I would ...@ Wing: Yeah, I don't pay bribes. And I would leave him out except that he pulls this when I have to leave for work. So far, I can get him back IN without chasing him down but it's just another change in behavior from this guy that has me asking: "now where is THIS coming from all of a sudden?"<br /><br />@ Sport: Ain't no way I'm going out there with him. I had to when the run was first repaired and made available to him, but that was a long time ago. He just doesn't want to go OUT because it's cold, and doesn't want to come in because, once out, he's forgotten the cold and is having fun playing in the snow. That said, I will sometimes play in the snow with him for a few minutes, but it's based on when I have time, not his schedule preferences.Murphy's Lawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17164780742334950772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-52955687899142678902013-01-25T10:31:27.657-06:002013-01-25T10:31:27.657-06:00Two ways to play that: 1. offer a treat if he come...Two ways to play that: 1. offer a treat if he comes inside. Unfortunately, this <i>is</i> paying the danegeld. <br /><br />2. Leave him out there to freeze, even though he's at the door. He's got a thick fur coat; it'll take a while for the cold to knock sense into his paws that if he doesn't want to have the human turn their back and walk way, he needs to be at the door on time every time.

Sometimes it even requires you pretending to take a leak with your dog. That's the curse of having a smart dog, they believe in shared misery.
