Boot Camp

Compared to puppy kindergarten, Allie's new training class is like boot camp.

In puppy class, the dogs always get some kind of free play where they can wrestle and run around with each other.  For Allie, this meant wrestling with her boyfriend Hector.  They were like peas and carrots.

Unfortunately, the new class doesn't allow the dogs to interact, much less play.  Allie hasn't figured that out yet - she continually tries to make friends with the other dogs (even though many of them are twice her size).

She's been doing well with her new commands at home, but once she's around all the other dogs she focuses on them instead of us.  One of the instructors said that at 5.5 months (and the youngest dog in the class) she still has "puppy brain."

I guess she's still just a baby - a big one!  28 pounds of puppy.
