Puppy Class

Today we took Normandy to his first puppy class! There were two other puppies the same age as Normandy (10 weeks) and around seven big puppies (7-12 months old). The instructor went over sit, down, and making eye contact with the small puppies while the bigger puppies trained in an obstacle course. Normandy was a good boy and wore his gentle leader and cape the entire time! The small puppies couldn't focus that long for training so we spent more time socializing him with the other dogs, people, and training facility. We bought him more nylabones because he constantly wants to chew/ eat EVERYTHING. At Target they had puppy teething nylabones that you can chill in the fridge to sooth their gums. He is getting better at going for a walk but still loves to eat grass, flowers, rocks, etc. He has been experiencing new thing around the neighborhood such as grates/ sewer lids in the road, stairs (walking up and down!), flags blowing in the wind, and cars driving 50 mph on the main road. He is so amazed at the cars that he stands and watches each one drive by. Normandy is in desperate need of a bath so I need to go wash him before it gets dark but here are some pics from class today.
