Gunnar Graduation!!



Today (8-21-06), Gunnar graduated from Puppy Elementary Obedience Class! He is just over 6 months old and weighs over 63 pounds and is doing very nicely with training. He is a very well behaved but happy and energetic puppy! He truly loves being a part of our family and we love having him as part of ours. He also loves his doggy buddies, Dakota, Yukon, Maverick (who could be his doppelganger) and Speedy.

We did the training at the Champaign Urbana Dog Training Club for the last 9 weeks. We had a great time. There were about 12 dogs total in the class as you can see from the one photo. The other is of Gunnar and I, and the two trainers, Nichole (right) and Janna (left). Gunnar even got voted to have the best trick. He payed dead when I shot him with a finger gun. It was not really a quick death but more like a slow death from a poison dart gun... It was cool thing to win.

Our next step is the CGC test... the Canine Good Citizen test... a required test for all the other training classes he might get into.

So that is all... Just a quick puppy update!

Later!
