Vern is a Genius!!!

Last night, Vern had his last Basic Obedience class. The instructor had three games to play for prizes and Vern won two. I have been very busy lately and have not been as diligent as I should with his training, but still he did great. We had to put him in a sit/stay, go out of the room, behind a door, and see if he could maintain it for 60 seconds with no corrections. HE DID IT! You would have thought he won the Nobel Peace Prize and not a pack of poop bags, I was so excited. I told him I knew he was a genius.

We have a Newfoundland in our class that wants to lay down all the time and I was sure he would win the down game, but Vern won that one too. We had to put them in a down and the instructor created distractions, including throwing food on the floor (Vern loves food, so I was concerned) and the last one not to break his down won. Yeah, Vern!!

It all seems minor in the scheme of things, but he was a very good boy and I am very proud of him!
