Hi, Cinder, another GSD here (Shiloh). Maybe it's a good thing that you don't go watch your new brother in class 'cause he'll be payin' more attention to you. I know 'cause when I go to agility with my human sister, the minute she lets go of my leash, I make a beeline for MOM sittin' on the sidelines. Everyone stops and looks at me runnin' and then they tell Mom to go hide. But that doesn't work, I find her every time! My human sister gets mad at me and tells me she's gettin her own dog! Oh well, maybe next week I'll pay attention to my sis.
Good luck with Smokey!
