Puppy Training.






Bertie got his 3mo vaccinations on 3/24 (happy birthday grandpa).  He was 19.5 lbs.
Monday he weighed 21 lbs.  He is growing like a weed and looks skinny and malnourished most the time.  He started obedience classes on Sunday.  He will go every Sunday afternoon for the next 8 weeks.  Everyone loved him.  We did this exercise where we passed our pups around and everyone held him in their laps.  He was an angel.  No barking, jumping or biting.  Thank God the only one who didn't buy the act was the trainer.   He had Bertie's number.  Told me that Bertie was too shy to bring out any of his Satanic leanings.  

We started using a clicker as a reward thing.  Click, dog treat.  Again and again.  Bertie is bolting for the door 10 times an hour so he can get a treat. Oops, just landed in UnderCity.  Gotta go, will have more to come later.
