Waiting for the Bus, or “Sid’s Trust Issues”
I’ve come to the conclusion that Sid has absolutely no faith in our promise to reward him when he does something good. Considering the number of treats this pug gets throughout the day as rewards for doing things as minor as sitting in his bed, I have no idea how and when we lost his trust. Was there some incident in the past when he saved a boy from a well and we totally forgot to give him a treat??? Perhaps he vacuumed up all of his pug fur one weekend and we didn’t even notice, let alone give him a carrot??? Whatever it was, now the pug can’t just patiently wait for his treat when he does something good, as you’ll see in this video of Sid waiting at the bus stop in his travel bag:
