| Iris has her CGC test tomorrow We will need some good luck. Her brother, Ivan, passed the test last summer. She's been doing great at our practice classes but I'm a bit worried about the 'reaction to another dog' test. Her first response is usually to bark as we approach another dog, especially a big dog. We've really been working on this and she's been doing great with the other dogs in class that she's gotten used to. Fingers crossed that she will continue for her test tomorrow. Going to try to fit in some cramming sessions today. |

| That is so AWESOME!!! You must be so nervous! We will be praying for you and Iris tomorrow. Let us know how she does. We will be anxious to hear the news.... Oh you must be so proud of Ivan. Monkey is to start his CGC classes at the end of this month. I am very excited but also nervous about approaching other dogs. He tries to hide behind my legs... LOL! He did really well with his obedience training so far. Whizzed through the final exam like he just "knew it all". It was funny because while driving to that last class I got so nervous I pulled into an empty lot about a block away from the building so we could do one final "cramming" session too. We must have looked ridiculous to the cars passing by. And like it was going to help at that point anyway.

| Our trainer, who we just love, said she is working on adding Rally as something that she offers. It may take her a while to do it, but I think that will be the next adventure for us. I think the pups will really enjoy it and I know I will love continuing our work. |

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | Awesome! I think a Yorkie would be great at rally! Funny how the more they learn, the more they like learning and the easier it is to teach them. You're obviously doing a great job! You ought to look into therapy dog work! Test is similar to the CGC, a little tougher but nothing your smarties couldn't handle.
