Puppy Camp is AWESOME!

Day one complete of Say Yes Puppy Camp - except for the homework.

Mr Mav was great on the flight.  I was nervous because he had to change planes in Calgary - but he was a trooper.  When we got to our destination he ran back into his crate no problem.  (Cinder sure wasn't like that after his first cross country flight)

Here's Mr Mav getting on the plane in Calgary

And here's Mr Mav learning the true meaning of cold getting off the plane in Hamilton.  Check out the bundled workers.  It was sooooo cold getting off the plane.

The first day of puppy camp has been amazing.  Learned a ton.  Susan and her instructors Lynda and Penny really inspire me to be a better dog trainer.  It's amazing how even the smallest details now will make the biggest difference in the future.  The official name of the course is "Critical Elements for Sport and Life" and it really lives up to its name.  Outstanding stuff!

Better run and work on that homework.  I need to shape Mr Mav to walk backward.

Makes me cold just looking at the photos! I'm so proud of the boy making his first flight without you beside him. He's such a guy!
BTW--one of his mother's favorite tricks is walking backwards! She gets such a kick out of that exercise.
