Bubbles Graduation Day

Well, it happened.  Bubbles graduated from a 6-week class obedience training.  

We *somewhat* accomplished our goals of socializing her with other dogs, becoming less afraid of her surrounding, and basic command skills.

She loves to 'sit'.  It's her favorite command.  And she really loves when a treat follows the command.  Haha!

Bubbles is a good girl!  And, she loves me to tell her that, too.  I say it often.  Bubbles was heaven-sent.

~~~IF I ONLY HAD THE NERVE ~~~

I love looking back on my blogs and reading about all the adventures we went on in the past.  Our biggest adventure these days is walking Bubbles around the back yard.  We are trying to fix her fears by short trips to stores and pet stores where she is forced to be around noise, people, and other dogs.  

*sigh*

On Monday she will graduate from a five-week puppy training class which has helped her a lot in socialization.  She now sees the other dogs there as her friends and it's cute how they touch noses when they are around one another.  But outside of class, her fears return.  

On Monday, during class, she was distracted by a man trimming a tree in the lot next door.  It didn't go well that day.  

"I was ascared!"

 Still, we keep trying.






No Rain, Please and Thank You

 A year and a half after bringing our bubbly bundle of joy home with us, I can report that her favorite pastime is TENNIS COURT PLAY.  Sadly...
