Weekly Bluey update. He started his puppy classes last week.
The 1st class was a little rough. He was super nervous and really couldn't focus on much. There's 3 other dogs roughly his age and size. One is a pit/cane corso puppy that was a bit disruptive and kept distracting him. Which I think is normal for a first class. And a normal well behaved golden retriever. And the last was a sweet special needs border collie mix. She has some neuro thing were it constantly bounces on its hinds legs. Pretty adorable but pretty distracting also. Bluey was kinda scared and didn't really play much at the end. Kept running back and hiding behind me.
The 2nd class was much better. He calmed down after about 10 minutes and ended up being the star pupil. We learned 5 things. All of which he pretty much already knew. And the trainer used him to demonstrate 4/5 things. She tried using the cane corso at first but he never did calm down.
That night after we got home I taught him how to close the baby gate.
