Practicing my RECALLS and...some amazing art

Here I am at training class (Oakland Dog Training Club) waiting my turn...not all that excited, this can be difficult stuff for a "freewheelin'" puppy like me... Kind of look like a sneaky bugger in this photo, don't I? Wondering if my snooter can open that front door if I need to make an EXIT! Hmmmmmm... We watched Sammie (Golden Samantha http://www.sammiegolden.blogspot.com/). She's a real pro at this, and has won some competitions! Go Sammie! Ears up pal!

Mom and I with the instructor, Barbara. We need a lot of help..and mom really needs some style pointers and a haircut!! Geez mom...I just couldn't look!

Well...I didn't do any sneaky bugger maneuvers...I was pretty good. And, we have a little video below with some nice music, if you would like to watch me practicing my RECALLS!

Whew! Now on to the amazing art... Mom has recently been in touch with a friend, and former co-worker who is an artist. She has put up a website http://www.katvross.com/. We think she is quite talented, and are looking forward to more creature paintings, sculptures and creations. Kat had been hired to create some illustrations for a textbook in 2005.

Sweet little 'Leo', the son of another of our co-workers.

Self portrait. Wonderful work Kat!!! Looking forward to viewing more of your projects!

Hope you all are having a really nice week!
