  So technically he responds to “nonononoooonono” (no raised voice, he’s not a fan) . Yesterday he was digging where he shouldn’t and I said it to him and he stopped, stared at me for a few seconds and then pretty much started up again, but the third time he stopped and went in his diggy box instead. I didn’t even have to get up! It’s only taken months and months to get to this phase and I am so proud of Dorian! I remember when he first came home from us I really doubted this day would ever come since he just completely ignored anything I said! Next up, responding to his name and maybe even coming when he is otherwise engaged and I don’t have a treat!
  
  Also if your buns have reached any milestones, learned new rcks or just been unusually adorable feel free to share!
  
  Oh and here’s a photo, since someone (*cough* HipHopBunny *cough*) will be asking for one if I don’t 😀

  His expression says, “Who? Me? I wasn’t up to anything….”

  @DanaNM – he actually was being good, he’s recently been allowed access to that chair so I think he feels like he is getting away with something just sitting up there!(I am hoping to eventually uncage my couch once he thinks of the chair as his instead). Also reread my post and seeing so many typos/proof reading fails, sorry everyone!

  See, they can learn the word “no”. They won’t always listen, but they can definitely learn what it means.

  @LBJ10 – well I am used to cats, so that will work for me! Though he did stop and then went and did his crazy digging in his box where he is allowed to. It gives me hope one day he’ll figure out that when I say Dorian I am not just announcing his majesty to all who are present but would like him to come. Even with a treat he just stares at me blankly. Maybe that’s the issue, he has no idea why I am saying his name. 😀
