Here is the gallery from class. No time to edit etc so you got what I clicked. Still figuring out the lighting in there and sometimes I watch and try to click so the camera moves. heh

Thank you Darlah for all the pics. They really express what happened tonight. We had a lot of fun. Rusty was tired when we got home but I also think he was quiet because he left al his friends. He needs more play times. He went crazy when he recognized you Darlah! Looking forward to next week.

Yes - never saw such a grand puppy fest. Its so nice! I believe all the pups did rather great this week. I want you to know Ella was not happy with the fan noise where she was but Nathan on purpose kept her there.

Love the shots of teeth and fun play. It is interesting to see how each pup is developing, they are amazing little things and seem to take all challenges in their stride.

Thanks for the pics Darlah, I love them. I had a great time this week. You are right, just relax and enjoy, they will get it with practice at home and with us learning in class. I love seeing all the Havanese together, such good times. And, exposing them to things they are first not happy with at first will only make them more balanced dogs in the future, I get it. Today on our walk on a major street a transport decided to make a turn toward us and back into a driveway right across from us. Patches sat and watched, didn't really like it, but when it was finished she got up and continued the walk even though she was very apprehensive at first.

Love all the pictures! Tiny was so tired, he slept the moment we got in the car. Practiced "stay" this morning. I went upstairs thinking wow, he really did stay. When I came back downstairs, he was "staying", but he was actually sleeping. All the playing with Ella and Clarity during the day and then in class at night really tired him out.

Jane: That is a good thing. :-) Isn't it great when you work their mind and bodies. They sleep so deep.

Angela: Good for you. It's those silly things that if exposed they actually get conditioned and no longer react.

The relax part for the humans is so true as how you feel runs down the lead.
