Truth is, Caspian has been a bit testy of late.
It seems he does not appreciate the finer points of my herding instincts.
I think he is just reacting negatively to who I am.
But it's probably best if I do not accompany him in the woods for a time.
Allow him to better appreciate what I bring to the relationship.
It is a complex matter.
But I am an honest dog.
Subtle and imaginative, but honest.
