Bang Bang Millie

As much as Rex loves Amelia (Millie) he apparently enjoys the idea of her being shot?!  Maybe I should explain.  The other day I was running Amelia through some of her tricks: sit, shake, speak, laydown.  I realized Rex was watching closely then i told her to "Put em up", and then gave the command "bang bang".  When the trick works right she is supposed to go from being up on her heels to down on the ground on her back in one motion.  Sometimes she does it most of the time she just lays down and then I repeat "bang bang" several more times to get her to roll over and look somewhat dead.  So the later was what happened this time and Rex started laughing while I was repeating the command.  I thought maybe he had thought it was funny to watch Amelia be up on her hind legs and then drop to the floor but after I said "bang bang" a few more times I realized it was just the words and my hang motion he thought were so funny.  Rex is obviously to little at this point to worry too much about teaching him that pointing you fingers in the shape of a gun and saying "bang bang" generally isn't a good idea or very funny.  He's not a huge laugher so I couldn't resist but to keep doing it, and get it on video.  I told Will I dont think Rex is have a problem with watching Old Yeller. 

(Warning-this video is several minutes long and the camera work is kinda shakey)
