Savvy has been doing excellent. I couldn't be happier with him so far. He's a dream to work with. He is doing great in both puppy class and in Flex. He has mastered "sit" and we are beginning to add verbal cues. He was doing good with "down" as well, but didn't want to do any during class so we're not allowed to add verbal cues just yet. I think that by this Tuesday I can have him ready to graduate to Flex II. Yippee!
I took both him and Catcher to an agility trial at Gemini in August and I am so proud of how they did. Both of them loved every person they met and every dog as well. They had a wonderful 1.5 hours of socialization and I couldn't be happier with them. Savvy even had his picture taken!
On Monday Mom and I took all three of them to the Fireman's Muster in West Groton. They met so many kids and people and all of them handled it great! I was very happy with them once again. Catcher got a little stressed at the end so we ended on a happy note, but Savvy and Oliver did wonderfully. At one point they were surrounded by a bunch of kids and our neighbors that have been visiting the pups almost every day since they were 5 weeks old came over. Savvy blew past the other people over to them and went belly up, he was so happy to see someone he knew!
On Wednesday Savvy went for his overnight visit. He stayed with good friend, and former co-worker, Lisa and her family. Lisa has a smooth collie x named Boomer as well as two children, Chris and Andrea. The kids were great socialization for Savvy and by the end of the night Boomer and Savvy were best friends. Check out the pics below!
Catcher now has his own blog you can find it through the link to the right. I will be adding things to it shortly. Once we decide on Oliver's registered name he will have his own as well.
All of the boys came to daycare this week and did great playing with Zoey. They love her and Catcher LOVES Tony. He really likes men, which makes me happy because Fly doesn't.
I think that's it for now. Enjoy the pics.
