I have willpower (sometimes).

Been to school again and got my adult Foundation award to go with my puppy one.

 

I did brilliantly today, some of the time and it was nice to have Dad come to watch.   I did a really good down-stay while Mum went for a walk.  Then Curly and I both did a down-stay only about a metre apart while his Dad and my Mum walked round us.  Mum says my only real downfall is self control and, to be honest, she's right.  I did find it hard to walk round with mum ignoring everything.    The problem is life is just so full of exciting things, like:

* Food
* People who might fuss me
* Sensational smells!
* Doggie friends 
* Doggie toys

My self control is coming though, for example I was a star at "Leave it".  Marie had some freshly cooked liver and she put a piece on everyone's mat.  OMG, the smell... I nearly grabbed  it then realised I had to do as Mum said and so I sat and left it.   When we got home Mum got me to pose for a photo to show my skill in waiting for a treat...
