Got Milk?

So one of the benefits of being unemployed is the unlimited time you have to spend doing stupid stuff...

Like training your dog.

So he got the sit and down super easy. It only took 1 morning to get him to shake and a couple more treats to turn that into 'high 5'. Wave was a little more challenging. Roll over was a cinch, but only in one direction. And his big finale? 'Spread 'em' where he goes to a wall and stands up against it with his face away until we say 'Bang bang' where he falls down and plays dead!

So the regular puppy class at the local pet store was a breeze for him. But he loved all the attention and playing with the other dogs. And Dave waived his 'no clothes' rule for the graduation...
