graduation
Speedy graduated from puppy school on Saturday. He executed the commands quite well and even performed another special trick (shaking paws). Unfortunately, he doesn't play well with others. The teacher was always giving him low marks for deportment. I think he is intimidated by all dogs larger than him and any that are contained in some way. He was much better than when I first took him, but he probably needs remedial classes.
Another interesting thing I have discovered about the little guy is that he doesn't adapt well to change. He barked incessantly at a pink/white dotted overnight bag I had set on the bed. I didn't realize at first that the bag is what was bothering him until I moved it out into the kitchen. Then he went out there to bark at it some more, eyeing it suspiciously the whole time.
Anyway, this is my loveable little neurotic, showing his good side at graduation.
