tiny training session and our morning outing

This morning, while Dolce was still asleep, we trained again.

We worked on :

• stand - down
• down-stand
  
• stand-sit
• sit-stand
• circle left
• circle right
• stand still = )

We also played tug. This morning I was able to "mess" with her a little while we played (touched her on the side, touched her back, touched her foot) without her losing her game.

These dogs were restless so I took them out for an adventure (well a walk around the block). Winnie rode in the backpack which I wore on my front. She seemed very intrigued by everything ... especially the blowing leaves. She vibrates a lot while outside....I tried to decide if she was excited or scared but ended up deciding that she was both. We passed by the playground on Bryant and a bunch of the girl (5-7 y/o?) wanted to pet the dogs. I wasn't sure if Winnie wanted to say hi or not. I started walking towards the fence and Winnie leaned towards the girls. We made it all the way up to the fence and Winnie tried to climb out of the bag to lick their fingers. We will have to go back and visit a few more times.

We continued on after a minute or so and headed around the block back towards home. Winnie climbed out of the bag and sat on top of it.....scared? excited?

When we got home I let the dogs out in the yard. They almost played. Dolce did his play bow/bark solicitation which again scared the pup. She actually rolled over a peed this time = (
He tried a slightly smaller version and then she bounced up to him. He quickly changed his mind and went trotting around the yard with the pup bouncing along after him. So close.
