Exist To Resist

When I went to Chris­tine N’s engage­ment party on Sun­day, she was play­ing with one of her dogs after most of the guests had stum­bled home/​into bed.

“Resist!“
 – Chris­tine N, hold­ing a piece of food in front of the dog. Then she would alter­nate between eat­ing the food her­self and feed­ing the dog a piece.
“Wow, that’s well trained!“
 – James S and me.
“You should have seen his mom. I could hold a piece of food in her mouth, tell her to resist, and then pull it back out and eat it. She would shake and tear up, but she wouldn’t bite it.“
 – Chris­tine N.

Cruel, but awe­some. And James S and I agree, we have not seen a dog cry before. I guess we missed out.

I wish I had that level of self-​control.
