Chris and I went last Thursday to meet the teacher and the other students. In about an hour, we'll be heading out for Finn's first class! Wish us luck!

Today was a lot of fun! We met all the other dogs, and, Finn is the youngest. The smallest, though, is Sparky, a rat terrier. There's Bruiser and then a mix breed that I can't remember his name! He's really cool looking, though. We are going to be working more on the sitting by our side thing, and, also not "fronting" us (which is just carrying out commands directly in front of us, instead of to one side). We learned a technique she calls "floppy dog" that will help to calm Finn down when he's too rambunctious. He and Chris did really well. It's basically just massage/handling and he fell asleep! Everyone, of course, loved him. I suck, though, because I forgot to take the digital camera. I'll take some photos of Chris and I working with him over the next week.

Awww, I'll bet Finn was the star pupil! But nawtee Mommy, forgetting the camera! Don't foret next time! His classmates sound adorable too! Good job, Finn! Can't wait to see you in action!

[guster girl]

Yeah, I know, I was so mad at myself for forgetting the camera. And, next week, I'll still be out of town. We'll have to wait til his third class to get photos.

[K9soul]

Awww that sounds so sweet! You'll get pictures next time you go to class, and they will be so cute! Can't wait to see them.

Glad to hear that Finn (and you!) are having fun in obedience class!

[guster girl]

Yeah, he's doing really well, too. He still won't go down the stairs, though! Anyway, I'm going out of town tomorrow, so, Chris will be taking Finn on his own to the class. I'll be back next Saturday, though. Maybe I can get Chris to post something about how Finn does in class #2.
