Brody is a very smart dog <br />Brody is a very understanding dog, and is very smart. May examples of his smartness is demonstrated. <br />➢ Pulling me by my leg from under the car when working on my car. I reassured him I am <br />okay. Then he sat by me, nonchalantly sitting there, but watching me from the side of his eye. <br />➢ As I was trimming a shrub, he sat by me and barked continuously at the shrub. Then I realize <br />that they were bees in the shrub and he must have gotten stung before, so he sat right next to <br />me and was trying to warn me. <br />➢ When he needs treat, he grabs my hand and led me to the freezer in the basement. <br />➢ Brody sat for about 2 hours as Carol Propotnik, animal behavior consultant, assessed his <br />behavior and talked to me last Friday. Staff at the animal care center came by, and not once <br />did Brody growled or barked at them. <br />➢ Brody interacted with construction workers in 2009 who replaced my roof, siding, and other <br />repairs that we had done. <br />2 <br />
