Two Steps Forward One Step Back

Uffa this week has taken to jumping up on me especially on our first outing to the toilet in the morning. When I say Off it starts a jumping puppy turn which at over 36kg is rather dangerous. When he calms down he just trots to the toilet as normal.

Today was our last puppy class together but I didn't know as I learned at the end the next one is cancelled. We were out for a walk today which included a trip to the local Tesco metro. You can hardly believe that 10 dogs (between 6 months and a year) could go out together and behave but they did-well almost. Uffa did quite well although he pulled too much towards the others when we were stopped. He just loves ALL the other dogs. He came home absolutely shattered and slept for over 2 hours. He is now chomping on a nylabone.

Yesterday I took him into the city centre on the bus for pigeon and shop training. We only found two pigeons and Uffa has the usual male characteristics when shopping-when I stopped to look at anything he just lay down uninterested. I'll never know if I should get the stone or navy trousers!

I went and tried on walking shoes and he was so good until I was leaving when he decided he didn't want to shop anymore and wouldn't get up. What would I do without 'biscuits'.On the whole it was a good outing which showed good progress.
