I told him if he was good I would take him to a store he liked. Well, he said, "I don't wanna go and I'm not gonna be good." And he wasn't. The store manager gave him a balloon, which I told him to be careful and not let the dog get it. Well, of course he let the dog get it. The dog ate it. So I told Ted that from that point on he had to follow the dog around and watch for the balloon in the poop. He didn't like doing that so from then on he listened a little better to me. He was so relieved to see that balloon in the poop!!!
