Getting to Work
I have been trying to encourage Zeke's independence to some sort of energy that is more positive. Normally his independence manifests itself in his trademarked catchphrases of "No no no no no no no!" and "You not do that" and the slightly more tolerable "Now it's my turn." I'm trying to make it work for me. Here is Zeke putting his energy and independence to some recent Friday tasks, as if they were his ideas: loading the washer and making dinner.

Great way to use that energy and you both benefit. He learns new skills. You get some chores done.
I learned on my last visit that Zeke likes to put some things in their proper places. When my dog Blanche's harness disappeared after I removed it to brush her, Aaron found it in Maggie's basket of toys & leashes. Zeke had put it there, appropriately.
