Learning new things at puppy class

Yesterday was a pretty busy day for me. Mom took me to work with her for the afternoon! I did okay! Every once in a while I would bark but for the most part I laid down next to Mom and watched her. The best part is every few seconds or so, it felt like a lot longer, I got a treat! Mom gives me cheerios since I have been having some stomach problems. Just before we left for the day I did fall asleep. I hear that I maybe coming back this afternoon.

I also had puppy class last night. It was really too hot to do any extreme training but I worked on leave it and shaping get dressed. I made some good progress with leave it last night. Mom says this is probably going to be very hard for me since I absolutely love food! I try to climb into the refrig every once in a while. But after a few minutes Mom was able to leave a cheerio on the floor without me going after it. Also she would roll some past me and I would actually not follow it. I bet Mom is really proud of me! I made some good progress on "get dressed" as well. For those of you who may ask what is "get dressed," its where I put on my harness. Twice last night I put my head throw it. Mom was very happy, she even clapped for me.

After puppy class we went to a local pet store. While there we practiced walking on a loose leash and paying attention. It was really hard to pay attention with all the smells of dog food and bones. Mom says we will be going back quite a bit to practice, especially since I am SO food motivated.
