But when he turned 18 months all of his bad behavior vanished over night.

Cheri is just so cute!

Or are kittehs really being trained but their just too cool to make it look like they’re being trained? 🙂

Of course, we aren’t being trained as kittehs…but Mommy’s working on Faraday’s skittishness. Does that count?

You’re so right about the importance of looking back at where your dog has been. It can be the thing that keeps you going. I use the blog for that purpose. And, in fact, we never fixed a door frame that Desmond did a number on last year. At first it was out of laziness and lack of know-how, but now I like it that way. It serves as a daily reminder of how improved my pup is.

We still can’t get Felix to sit quietly while people pass and it’s sooooo embarrassing! You know, it never occurred to me to keep a training journal, but I can absolutely see the value.

For me, the blog is a great place to look back. I can be a tad scattered in my real life (GASP, I know you’re shocked, right?) The blog allows me to gather the best of our pictures and stories into one spot. I suspect that without an audience, I might forget to record these things.

We kept height and weight charts.

It can be rewarding to look back and see how much has been achieved and also fun too. Have a wonderful Wednesday.
Best wishes Molly

Typist is having similar problems with her dogs and sometimes feels that just as she is getting somewhere everything takes a step back, but then when she looks at the bigger picture she see’s how well she has come! She may have to keep on of those journal things to help keep sane (although I think she passed that mile stone a while ago!)

I remember LOTS of tears when Cali was a puppy. Those teeth are so razor sharp! Great job with both Honey and Cherie!
