OwnedBySummer Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 (edited) I've had Summer since May 1 of this year. Today, we went to a family BBQ and she was left alone for 9 hours. This is the longest time we have been away, i.e. the longest time we have asked her to "hold on". What a wonderful girl she is!!!! -- we came home to absolutely no messes of any kind! By jove, I think we've got it! I am so proud of her, I just had to write and share my happiness! Edited August 15, 2010 by OwnedBySummer Quote Lisa B.

EllenEveBaz Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Good girl, Summer! Were you able to enjoy the gathering, or were you worrying about her the whole time?

OwnedBySummer Posted August 15, 2010 Author Share Posted August 15, 2010 I started worrying at the 7 hour mark, LOL. I figured I'd be getting out the big carpet shampooer when we got home! I really did NOT expect her to be successful. Such an incredibly pleasant surprise it was! Quote Lisa B.

tydyelady Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Congratulations Summer! Good Girl! Even I start worrying after 7 hours, and our Opie is a great "holder". We are rarely gone that long, but every once in a great while.
