Today was a busy day for Yukon, two providers followed by puppy training school. Lucky for me there was only one other dog in training - a small terrier 11 months old. Funny Yukon was 9 1/2 weeks and towered over the little terrier. They played well together and Yukon put up with a lot of jumping and mouthing from the terrier; Yukon could have had that little dog for a snack - but he played nicely.
We worked on Sit/Stay, Look and leash walking all of which Yukon has already got pretty much down. The little terrier on the other hand was a handful and he is 11 months old! Yukon did the commands with the trainer as well as me; I was really proud of my little (big?) guy. We will continue working on these commands ready for next week.
I bought Yukon a large bone so he can gnaw on with his little teeth while teething. I also bought a clicker for clicker training. The instructor was really nice and I spoke with her after the class about where Yukon and I need to go. She said that Yukon and I were already well on the way and we were both doing a great job. Thanks to Cheri, Marianne and Wokini's for the advice on good books for training dogs!
Needless to say Yukon is totally wiped out and is fast asleep.... good job Yukon!
