Brief report

Our walk this morning, briefly:
Gustav does not care for his backpack much, but homeboy is fat and needs the extra exercise. So too bad.
Saw maybe three or four people, no dogs. Lots of good CCing, especially the neighbor who came out to warm up his truck and some diner patrons going in and out of the diner.
Times over threshold: 0.
I'm thinking about experimenting with the type of protein for Gustav, as suggested by Chelse. This will make an excellent Skinnerian ABA type study, which I just learned about in skool. A is Baseline: Iams. B is Treatment: some other type of protein (Iams is chicken). A is back to baseline (Iams). This step can be skipped I think if needed, but is nice to control for some validity threats that can pop up with the passing of time (history and maturation come to mind, my teacher would be proud.) The measure will just be times over threshold over the life of the big bag of food. I think this will even out other variables. Interesting to try, anyway.
Shane came over and Dottie barked, but not Gustav. It was tough since they didn't really expect it. Weird, though, since he's in the band and nothing else was different. Dogs are bad at generalizing, it's true.
