Weekend Progress

Sorry no new pictures today...but I wanted to just give a quick update on my girls!

Three separate times this weekend, I left the girls (and Hardy) to free roam while I ran errands.  Now, It's not like I was gone hours at a time, my  longest trip was maybe 30 minutes, but I am still proud to announce that every trip was a success!  There were no "revenge accidents."  No torn up furniture or knick-knacks I left laying around.  Frankly, no evidence that I had left 3 dogs running loose at all.  I am so proud of Minaki and Pudgie Pie for this!  Not that I didn't think they could do it (I wouldn't have attempted it at all had I not trusted them), but for them to be so good on 3 different occasions was absolutely amazing!

Oh, and I almost forgot.  I attempted to get a fire going in my firepit on Saturday.  I thought it would be fun to bring one of the dogs out to check out a new landscape.  Pudge was the winner (she was hanging out outside while Mini was napping on the couch).  Of course, Mini happened to see us walk out the gate and had a maybe 5 minute freak out until she realized she could still see us.  I think she was jealous that I had chosen Pudge for a walk and not her (she's not the anxious type when I leave).  Anyway, Pudge did pretty well with me.  She wanted to smell all the new things (so many sticks/trees/rocks), and didn't appreciate that I wouldn't let her outside her 6' leash range.  When I managed to briefly get a little fire going, she was quite interested.  Don't worry, not interested enough to check it out.  Just interested enough at the popping to cock her head to one side and listen for a bit.  I really think she'd make a great companion for a family that likes to go camping!
