Riley

This is our new pup! He is 10 months old and quite adorable! We are having such a great time with Riley. We got him from a breeder when he was 8 months old and he was pretty well trained already (that was a life saver!!). I needed to train him to the electric fence though...sigh! Well, it all worked out fine and he was even leaving the yard on a lease with no problems (something our other Lab would never do, so walks were impossible unless you took him in the car to leave the property! UGG!) Anyway, yesterday I was getting the mail and Riley was walking next to me, usually he stops towards the end of the driveway but he must have forgotten and when he heard the warning beep for the fence, he bolted through it instead of retreating backwards. Then he didn't want to come to me because he was scared (do you blame him?) and after finally getting him (now picture me holding the mail and did I mention I was also carrying the baby?) and dragging him back into the yard he was scared to even be in the yard. He is doing better today, but this week, I have a lot of puppy training ahead of me!
