    Puppies are coming along

    The puppies and I spent the day at the MJLRC Spring Match. I brought them because I wanted them to experience a dog show environment, and couldn’t have asked for better. Due to the acoustics of the building, and the fact that breed and obedience were running at the same time, the noise and ambience perfectly simulated a large, noisy dog show. They did GREAT. Neither had any issues with the noise, people, or other dogs, were quiet in their crates, and while happy to meet new people, were even happier to work with me on their “tricks” outside of the ring. Cookie even spontaneously started offering me heads up heeling - which considering we haven’t really taught that yet was pretty darn impressive, LOL.

    That is the downside with having two - I probably haven’t been schlepping either of them with me enough. Part of that though is at the indoor shows we’ve been doing, crate space has been very limited so it would be hard having an extra crate with me. Once the outdoor show season starts the plan is to take one each day. I’m half tempted to take them with me to Potomac, but really don’t want to deal with them in the hotel room - at the show, they’d be fine!
