Bauer does a lot of amazing things, and I am always surprised by how smart he is. Every evening I take Bauer to an industrial/business park that is cut through the woods near my house. There are lots of hills, fields, wooded areas; and he loves it. I let him explore off-leash while I do my run. Normally, he runs ahead a little bit and we do a lot of recall practice (although he never goes more than about 20 yards away from me). He will often come back and "check-in", and stays with me until I release him to explore again.
Last night he was acting really weird. He stayed right with me, and kept looking up and sniffing at the sky in the distance. He usually stays away from the road, but last night he kept going right up to the curb like he was ready to cross the street, turn around, and go home. He was driving me crazy . . . and then it started to rain. As soon as the rain started he looked at me, and took off to explore. He acted completely normal while I completed my run. I was thinking about it later, and wondered if he knew it was going to rain. Is it possible?
