Leo was a little stubborn today but he did just fine. He got some extra house time today and so we pushed Place and Down Stay. He did okay on Place but sometimes got distracted (usually by the baby) and wanted to go play instead of sit still. I had him in a Down/Stay during dinner time with my family and after checking that everyone around the table was not going to fall for his big brown eyes he resigned himself to his fate and laid down to watch us eat.
His obedience is cleaning up very nicely, even with the cruddy weather we've been having. He went on a little jog with me today and he is easily the most athletic pug I've ever trained.
Most of his commands are pretty spot on at this point and so we focussed on distraction proofing today. We worked around his puppy friends and while I was tossing a squeakie toy around. His biggest obstacle is still people but his jumping up is getting much better.
All in all, Leo had a solid work day and I hope to get him into town for a field trip either tomorrow or Monday. There won't be a blog post tomorrow but Leo will get the morning off while I am in church then we are back to work. He is such a special little guy!
