just to give him something to do. Once he masters that, maybe I will teach him left and right. Professional herding dogs learn this, so I guess Ziggy can too. He just needs *something* for his brain to do. If I have time tomorrow, I will run with him or take him to the dog park. Maybe both He keeps me in shape!
