We spent the next week much as we did the last.
We worked and played and ate lots of good food.
The Big Fox takes care of me and I like to have him chase me around. Sometimes we wrestle.
But, my favorite place in on my mom's lap, snuggled under a blanket, all nice and warm and full of dinner.
On Monday, though, we went to another training place. There was a man there that my mom calls "Bud". I like him. He has a thing that I get to run through. Mom calls it a tunnel and it's 10' long and black. I ran through it as fast as I could and met mom at the end where I got a very nice treat!
On Friday we went to what I learned was mom's agility class.
She was using The Big Fox for her demo dog. That made me mad!
I could be a demo dog. I was one in the puppy obedience class, so why not the agility class?
When mom came to get The Big Fox, I screamed that it was MY turn to be agility demo dog!
Mom laughed and told the people that what they were seeing was proof of how love and kindness coupled with positive training worked with dogs. I was only 10 1/2 weeks old and already wanted to play with my mom. She was right. I wanted to be with her and do things.
She got me out and put me on a thing she called a table. She said she wanted me to feel the rough surface and get used to sitting on it. I did some sits and a down for her as well as some stands.
People seem to think that I am very unusual. What they don't understand is that I was born to be with my mom and dad. I didn't need to learn my name, because I gave it to mom. I am her dog, just as The Big Fox is.
