A very wise horse-whisperer friend of mine, a cowboy named Brad, once told me that when training any animal you need to make the right choice the easy choice. This concept was a great help to me while training my independently minded horse and even applied nicely to teenage children. I’ve recently discovered it is an excellent strategy with Carla as well.
Carla has earned the nickname Goldilocks at our house because she likes to try out all the chairs, sofas, and beds in search of the best spot.
In my office….
On a kid bed…
In the playroom… (amidst the noise)
In the living room…
On my bed! (this picture gives you a point of reference as to her size – this is a queen size bed)
