Grass Signal

Now that Chester has figured out what Rachell is trying to achieve, he sets his sight on how to let her know when he needs to go out. He determines he should attempt to signal her with something new in his various communications.

He drops a kibble of food on her or in front of her when he wants to be fed. He stands staunchly staring at the treats on her night table when he wants her to give him a treat.

Chester thinks, “I wonder if I just stare at her, if that will do it?”

He tries to stand staring intently at her to see if that is enough.

When he hears her ask, “What would you like, Chester” he realizes she clearly is not getting the message.

He continues to stare at her and adds a tilt of his head. She doesn’t even seem to notice the tilt. He turns his head to face the door.                            

Rachell asks, “What is it, little man?

“What do you want, sweetie?”

Chester gets too excited and makes a soft bark.

Rachell just guesses and inquires, “Do you want to go out, baby?”

He pounces on her lap and lunges back toward the door which lets her know she’s right. She picks him up and heads to the backyard.

“I made it!”

“I’ll consider this success,” Chester decides. “I’ve found our GRASS SIGNAL.”
