We are looking into obedience classes now, I think the earliest we we can get him into one starts the end of the month. Agility is something to think about next spring. I'd love to tire him out in the morning, but he seems to want nothing to do with excercise at 6:30am. He doesn't even want to chase a ball, much less go running. He is certainly not a morning dog. Which I suppose is a good thing in some ways, as I'm not a morning person either. This morning Laura took him for a long walk, I'm not sure what else we can do in the time wbefore we leave for work, since we get up at 6, and have to leave by 7:30. We tried the Kong with peanut butter, and it kept him occupied for about 10 minutes, then he left it alone. This in the first dog I have ever seen that isn't food driven. When we feed him, he sniffs the food and then goes and lies down. Yesterday he left his food in the bowl for several hours before he finally finished it. I don't know about the rag trick, he chewed up a rawhide bone and ate most of it, so he would probably eat the rag too. Yep. We are trying to be calm. Will do. Thanks for the advice you have offered, I hope something works, as it's similar to other advice we have found online and in books.</blockquote>
