For the past eight weeks, I've been taking Trip to a puppy class.
They only other puppy in the class is Trip's brother Ozzy (on the right), who lives with a family in a town a few miles north of mine.
With only two puppies in the class, some liberties are taken. Trip and Ozzy are given a bit of time to say "hello" at the beginning of each session.
This usually starts casually enough...
... but soon leads to a little bit of rough housing...
...and then more...
...and more...
...until finally someone says "Enough!"
And then we have two quiet pups again.
Both pups graduated this week - here's Ozzy's class picture.
And here's Trip's.
