My mom and daddy were so proud of me especially when I learnt to sit before we crossed the road so quickly! I went out once in the day and once in the night and I was not scared at all.<br />

My teachers name is Pam and she is really nice but really strict, everything I think a teacher should be. Me and my humans arrived to class and met my other classmates.<br />
<br />
<ol><li>Charlie a shipoo who is a little nervous and was having a bad hair day, we will be friends </li>
<li>Bandito a big chocolate lab who is really friendly but stepped on my food by accident and mad me cry. ouch.</li>
<li>Blaze and smart husky who I think I will be friends with..</li>
<li>Dexter a Doberman who is having some behavioural issues, it is his second time in the class. He is working through some aggression so I am nervous around him.</li>
</ol><br />
This class we worked on sitting...I did a pretty good job and my humans were really proud of themselves. Then we went for a walk around the store and I had a great time exploring...<br />
My homework is to practice sitting and my humans will practice stopping me from biting their pant legs. LOL.<br />
<br />
The best parts of my day were meeting my new friends, being told how adorable I was over and over again. Meeting some children who gave me LOTS of attention..I really liked that.<br />
<br />
Tonight I am chilling chewing on my bone and enjoying my Kong.<br />
<br />
Night, Night. <br />

We are in love!!! He is a fab puppy who is loving and lively and is so smart...I don't mean to brag but it is so true! Our little boy is pretty much house trained and already plays a great game of fetch! Here are some things we have learnt in our first week of being dog owners.<br />
<br />
1. After a nap if we don't get our little boy fast enough, expect a small accident. <br />
<br />
2. Puppies are exhausting but worth every minute<br />
<br />
3. Being the alpha from the beginning is important<br />
<br />
4. Puppies are like little sponges and want to learn<br />
<br />
5. My husband is a dog lover, he didn't even know that!!!<br />
<br />

Puppy arrives on Friday!Lmachttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17341024931974420308noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244664999923011615.post-29021747231893835282011-02-14T11:27:00.000-08:002011-02-14T11:27:45.684-08:00Senior reunited with stolen dog - Toronto Sun - Dan IlikaIt wasn’t quite a dog day afternoon, but one Toronto senior is glad his canine hostage crisis has come to an end.<br />
Retired engineer John Hildon, 84, curled up in his favourite recliner Sunday with Goldie laying across his lap as the pair spent the day together following a bizarre dognapping on Friday night.<br />
“I was taking Goldie for a walk...on Ellesmere (Rd.) going towards Victoria Park (Ave.),” said Hildon. “This guy ... looked down (at the dog) and said, ‘Who’s dog is this?’ And I said, ‘I don’t know,’ jokingly. So, this guy grabs the dog.”<br />
Hildon, who lives near Ellesmere and Victoria Park, said the man ran across the street against a red light with his eight-year old Bichon Frise in his arms and jumped on a bus.<br />

It wasn’t until officers brought Goldie home Saturday night that he could relax.<br />
“It was one of the happiest moments of my life,” Hildon said with tears in his eyes. “When I saw the (police) coming to the door with him I couldn’t believe it.”<br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Goldie was rewarded with a pork chop dinner and plenty of affection from Hildon.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Hildon said that while he will continue to walk his dog along the same route, he did learn a valuable lesson. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">“I’m gonna keep him on a six-foot leash now,” he said with a laugh.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
