Making Ourselves Known

Obedience class went mostly well. After his tail knocked over a whole section of ring divider (it's a short wooden expandable x fencing), he jumped on a little husky dog to play while I was fixing the fence earning a nasty glare from the owner, and decided to pitch a little but loud barking argument while the instructor was welcoming us (at least that got a couple of chuckles and a "any questions" comment).



Then he mostly settled down. It didn't help that it had rained all day, so I didn't get him good and worn out before class. Anyways, we're definitely the biggest dog in the class, with a Doberman in close second. Which is always hard because people don't understand that he's still a puppy, so he really should get a little le-way. The assistant to the class was cracking up when she brought Torque back from the "out of sight" part, because he had spent the entire 3 minutes away from me trying to play with her (they aren't allowed to do more than pet their head for the CGC test). He is a nut.



It will be interesting to see if I survive the class - haha, we may be repeating it. Actually I think he'll do well, it will be a great learning opportunity for him and me! More updates later!!


Mmm, on a quick side note - if you never went to check out the Atlanta IHOP podcast on the Glory of Marriage I would encourage it. It's great weather or not you're married, it's not the normal sermon on marriage. Check it out! http://ihop-atlanta.com
