What is it about dogs and car rides? Even mechanical hounds, indeed.

Consider a dog’s sense of smell, which is a quantum leap above our own. When they ride in a car, with their head out the window, its a sensory high for them.

Interventor is right on. Someone once described a dog’s ability to differentiate scents as comparable to our ability to see slight differences in colors.
Of course my wife says that I see only the basic 8 colors. I am forbidden from offering an opinion on wall paint, counter tops, flooring, wallpaper, etc.

Share your secret, I try to never offer an opinion in those areas but get asked anyway.

My wife knows not to ask me. I see absolutely no problem with mixing plaid with checks.

We read books to comprehend a story, they sniff the ground to read stories.
I thought he was trying to get into the bed of the truck.

Colors, Clothes, Fashion are very unmixy things for me. I like dogs and they like me.
Once upon a time in the park, I gathered a crowd while playing my pipes and the chorus of 15+ hounds was fabulous.
Never met a dog who didn’t see a pick-up truck and start wagging their tail. Mine keeps choosing the newest & brightest in the lot and always seems disappointed when I keep driving my old one instead.

Being another 8 crayon box kind of guy, I found it simple – simply be consistent in describing colors as you seem them.
“I took the red shirt”
/No, that’s pink … or maroon … or magenta … or orange/
“Yeah, the red one”
“I took the blue shirt”
/no, that’s teal/
“Yeah, the blue one”

Nice truck. It might need some things hammered out.
The dawg has to gain mastery of truck bed entry skills. maybe a mod up the back (and sides?)with a bumper extension the dawg can use for a lift up, step wise? Or better programming?
