So in another effort to get Sun out and atleast pee I asked him once again if he wanted to go out. No dice. He stayed in his bed and put his head down on his paws to accentuate his unwillingness to go out.
So I picked up the van keys and asked him again. He leaped out of his bed and trotted to the the door and waited for me to open it. Once out I headed for the van and he went straight to the side door and waited for me to open it.. I walked past the van and headed to the mail box telling him "lets go to the mailbox" He walked happily beside me out there and paused to pee on the tree beside the litle building of multitudes of pigeonhole boxes. SCORE!
When we headed back to the breezeway he again stopped by the van waiting to go. "Nope, not going no where". When we got back to my breezeway He went to the door tail wagging waiting for me. When I walked pase my door and headed out toward the back yard all wagging stopped, tail drooped, ears dropped and scaredydog was back. It was ok so long as he thought we were going for a ride. I got what I wanted tho so I let him back inside. More thunderstorms are headed in so there will be no hope of him going out tonight. I will be doing poo duty by morning, Im sure. Hes an old dog, Ill cut him some slack.
