The girls are both getting really good at sitting on command (especially when I have treats on hand-working on everyone taking them nicely and not taking my hand with the treat). I get a kick out of getting everyone together and working on sit......and then I might have been enjoying their rapt attention to the treat in my hand:)
got another good video of Ringo and Maya playing in the background, while Mindy was being super sweet and cute for the camera. I've noticed that sometimes it seems as if her bottom gum/lip is sticking out-just realized last night she has a bit of an underbite! My pugs had this, but I hadn't seen it in a bigger dog before. Anyways, here's that video:
And in that play between Ringo and Maya, I snapped a picture of Maya with her "mean" face on:)
Kept the cats in the other room last night, separate from the pooches, so as to take away any opportunities for the girls to get into trouble with them (this is based on the chicken chasing incident yesterday and their increased interest in all things small). Took the girls out a few different times on leashes (working on sitting before the leashes go on so we're all calm) attached to a hands free belt I have (which is awesome). They were pretty receptive to the leashes - Maya darted once after the pups (and about threw my back out) but the restriction of the leash made her stop pretty quick and look back to me for guidance. Oh yeah, I also took the girls into a room by themselves yesterday for like 5 minutes each, and started working on down (lay). And Mindy is coughing less and less frequently.....
