Graduate

Tonight was Rosie's graduation from Puppy Basic class. We did a really fun exercise where we passed our puppies around the room and let other people handle them, making them do sits and downs and so forth. Rosie soon learned that everybody else has treats, too, not just me, and this made her a bit of a brat for the rest of class. She also pooped on the floor of the classroom, which was not very nice. Then it was time for graduation. She had to go up in front of the class and do a special trick. Hers was doing a down on verbal command, which none of the other dogs can do yet. She heeled the whole way to the front, too. That's my food-motivated dog.
