Finally!

First of all, mum want me to apologize to all of my friends for the tardy post! Poor mum! She started her new job on Monday AND she was suddenly taken with a cold! Yuk! Poor ME because I now have to be placed in my crate during the day while mum's at work! I like my crate (ahem...I call it my den), but would MUCH prefer mum or dad stay home with me all day! When mum gets home from work, out I come! I'm so excited to see her, I can hardly STAND it! Mum thinks that I'm not used to the routine yet, but I'm going ot surprise her by NEVER being calm when she gets home! So, my last Obedience (ahem...kookie) class went very well. I was on my BEST behavior! I do have to show all those other doggies in class how genius we Airedales are! This class was the most fun yet! Mum and dad brought along a very long leash. (about 8 feet of lead) so that I could learn to COME! from far away.

Sniff the Kookie!

GET the Kookie!! (all the time mum is yelling Liberty Liberty Liberty!)

FINISH LINE! (more like Kookie line!)

I personally LOVED that game! I only got to do it twice though. Teacher was timing us and I came in as the second fastest (but I think I was duped on time!). 3.13 seconds! Who could be faster than me, you ask? Well, my friend Cooper, the Bernese Mountain dog! I'm a good sport though and let him sniff me afterwards. We also learned the STAY! command. Here's dad teaching me (I already knew how this game was played, but I like to take advantage of dad occasionally)

All in all, I had a good time and was told that I was a very smart girl! I LOVE compliments! No class this week though as it's a holiday weekend! Mum said something about rabbits and eggs! I like both so it must be a holiday made for Airedales like me! Oh! Excitement!
