Our Beer Retriever

Some of you may know that Kurt has been working with Cash for a long time trying to train him to bird hunt and retrieve birds. Cash is successful some of the time, but mostly just performs on his own time. He is the absolute best family dog we could ever ask for, so I'm not complaining, but Kurt really wants him to be his hunting buddy too.

However, it seems that we've found Cash's next calling - retrieving beer or other items from the cooler. Cash loves to open up a cooler with his nose and help himself to ice, so Kurt wanted to see if he would fetch items out of the cooler. Sure enough, he did it. The next morning, I let Cash out in the backyard to do his business. I came to the back door to let him back in, and he was digging in the cooler. Not only was his face in the ice, but he had managed to spread beer across the yard. I guess we're still working on his newest trick!
