The Pups...Sally and Buttercup

Now that the pups are getting older and have successfully completed some obedience classes, we are trying to let them out to roam the house a bit more. Today The Golden Girls and I had a lot of fun just hanging out. Of course, I could not get a pic of Copper because she always sticks so close to my side. So here are today's pics of Sally and Buttercup. Sally is 16 months old and Buttercup is 10 months.

Sally is learning

This is not the best pic of Sally, but this is available. I have spent more time with this dog this summer than my husband. She is coming along nicely, of course with every new thing for her to learn, she and I have to have a meeting of the minds. She is stubborn as can be, has tons of endless energy and is smart as a whip, so workout for her means workout for me. We will see if little Vincent can ever call himself her pack leader. He desperately wants to show her next summer, we will see. A whole year is a long time to make progress. I am up for it, so I am crossing my fingers. Our trainer, Cari, that we have had this summer is so positive and has done wonders with us and our dogs, so I am so thrilled to get on the right track.
