Uno's First Lesson: Sit

Uno attended his first lesson today. Alfred the trainer seemed quite a pleasant person and is knowledgeable about dogs. He taught us to jab Uno if we spot him misbehaving, and it worked! Uno was playing with his newfound toy, the door stopper, when Alfred jabbed him once to stop him. When he threw the door stopper back to him, Uno didn't even dare sniff at it! Ha...finally met his nemesis : )

Uno did fairly well today with the 'Sit' command. No slouching, sliding to the floor...in fact he sat so upright : ) For that, he earned himself a huge dog biscuit. Well done, Uno!

Keep it up, Uno!

Uno is really smart. For the past 2 weeks, we have been letting him out of his pen for limited periods daily to run about the yard and kitchen. And each time he needed to pee or poo, he will return to his pen. Barring the 2 - 3 accidents, he had been doing very well. He is also able to sit quietly while Phyo prepares his food, and will only eat when given the cue. We were totally impressed!
