Daily Drabble – Training

It was not so easy to train Jake. There was no two ways about it he was just very slow on the uptake. He’d stand there, head cocked looking a bit bemused, as if he knew there was something being asked of him but he was not quite sure what.
Meg spent the best part of two years working on training him and by the end of that time he had a pretty good understanding of ‘walkies’, ‘go pee in the garden’, ‘bed time’ ‘dinner time’ and a few other key phrases.
But Meg persisted because she loved her human.
