| Petsmart! This time, nothing bad! I think I'm enrolling Baxter into the Petsmart training classes. I met the trainer, this really sweet woman that I really like. I have a good feeling about her! But the MAIN reason I was writing is... Baxter met his first other yorkie today in Petsmart! The other yorkie was a boy named Dallas; he was thirteen pounds! Baxter was scared at first, and they didn't get to meet for long, but I thought Dallas was so cute! The woman said that Dallas looked like Baxter when he was a puppy, so maybe I have a good idea of how Baxter will end up looking! Who knows though? LOL. I wish I could find somebody that lived close to where I live that had a yorkie so they could play together... I just love yorkies! Anybody live near Charlotte, NC that wants to get together for a playdate?

| How exciting. I was thinking of enrolling Suri so she can socialize with the others.

| Training is so much fun and exciting. We did not have friends with dogs at the time so class was were Biggie socialized. I too wish Biggie had a Yorkie friend to play with. Biggie took the Puppy, Intermediate and Advanced class at Petsmart. He had an excellent trainer named Gayle. He passed his Canine Good Citizen Test with flying colors. |

| Of course! I probably won't start him for another week or so, but I am really excited. He already has been socialized with many other dogs, and exposed to different homes/apartments. His manners are what needs work on most of the time. For instance, I took Baxter outside to potty, and my neighbor walks out with a dog three times Baxter's size. Baxter acted scared, but as soon as the big dog turned around and started walking off, Baxter followed (well, tried, I had his harness on) and then proceeded to bark! Like he was trying to intimidate the other dog! He just thinks he is so much bigger than he really is. But anyways, yes, I will keep everyone posted.
