Excellent Puppy class this week

Merlot only checked out for a bout 15 minutes in the middle of class this week. We were the only early birds so we got to show the instructor Denise that Merlot really knows her stuff before the distractions come into play. Merlot got to run the full warehouse and had a blast coming back to me for treats and Denise even gave us some extra special treats for class - Denise loves Merlots energy on the recall boy do her flap when she runs back to me, and the pitter patter for not so small feet make me laugh.

Mo the boxer was absent
Gracie the chocolate lab was the most improved
Marleys mom didn't want Merlot with her this week.
Hunter get a puppy cut
No name has a name Serious, I think that is sirius like the satellite radio but I didn't ask
Max was better at playing with the smaller dogs this week, less timeouts for him

Merlot leaves it, watches, waits, sits, settles with a nudge from me, the newest game is find it, and down most of the time at home, not a class thing but I'm been working with her at home on this one.

watch was extra hard with Denise walking by with a squeaky toy and the next pass with bouncing a ball, I was just glad Merlot didn't lounge for the toy, I need to work with distractions with her. Bob I need some help....
