The Buttercup Challenge & So On

Country Life does have certain puppy training opportunities lacking in big cities…

…but puppies need to meet humans and so yesterday Pozy Clarkia and I headed off to what passes as the Big City around here — Missoula.

We practiced being in a new place and walking on her harness/leash…

We also met up with a Berner friend and her kids who are vacationing in the west…

Pozy Clarkia was rock solid — I was super pleased — and it was great to visit with Paula and the kids.

Buttercup is setting a high bar for her siblings.

Not only did Buttercup earn her AKC Canine Good Citizen title but she also earned the Trick Dog Novice title! Apparently the answer to the question, “What’s Up, Buttercup?” is “A LOT!”

Pozy Clarkia says, “Game On, Buttercup!” and invites other Wildflowers to see if they can master ten of these tricks — we can have the puppies evaluated via video when they are ready.

Pozy Clarkia has not just been sitting on her fuzzy bum — she has been working on her agility skills.

Go Pozy Clarkia!

I hope you are staying safe and cool and enjoying your day!
