Porter graduated!

We finished our 8 week basic training class, and Porter’s doing much better, but we still have a lot of work to do with him. Not that he’s not a great dog anyway, he’s just a little stubborn. The class definitely helped, we just need to practice a bit more.



head of the class

Porter had his first training class last night, and so far we’re very proud of him. All the other dogs spent the entire time wrestling around and barking their heads off, but Porter was the best guy, and just sat there watching everyone. He even did his best to ignore the gigantic great dane puppy next to us, who couldn’t sit still and just flopped around in his awkward great-dane-puppy way the whole time, interspersed with periodically reaching over and licking Porter’s face and privates, not necessarily in that order. Now if he could ignore being serviced by the dog next to him, that’s focus.



Our first big step

I officially signed Porter up for basic training at PetSmart tonight. We pretty much had no choice, as the other day while we were at work, he went through an entire bag of Christmas gifts and ripped everything apart – books, DVDs, videos, EVERYTHING. Although he’s never done anything even remotely this bad before, it was definitely a big wake up call that we need to do something. We start January 14th!
