Past few months I've been working on transitioning Kody to do off lead work in class every monday. He does wonderfully at home inside and outside, but I was a bit worried of actually dropping the lead when he's around other dogs in class, mostly because I don't know the other dogs. Well, tonight, we worked 2 hours off lead during class with 3 dogs

Where do the puppies go? *sigh* They really do grow up incredibly fast. ;) But it's amazing that he's doing so well, and you're right to be proud of him. That's quite an accomplishment, both being so good in the house and doing so well offlead in his classes.

Mesquite loves pop bottles too :P He squeezes them repeatedly making them crinkle *laughs*

I'm going to be two in April! Happy Birthday Kody!

How did your mom teach you to fetch things for her? My mom would love it I learned that trick!

Thank you!

I'm still not reliable 100% of the time on picking things up. But, basically every time mommy and daddy played with me, they told me to 'get it' then when I looked at it or picked it up they praised me a lot and fussed over me as if I had saved thier very lives. I'll eagerly fetch my toys, but other things I'm selective about.
If my food bowl is empty I bring it to mommy and daddy and they'll put more in it, so that helped make it click that bringing things to mommy and daddy is a good thing. Picking things up is really fun, mommy's hoping to teach me to pick up anything to help her around the house.
