Hey everyone! Ellie here at the keyboard to tell you all about how I graduated from the Intermediate Training Class! I tell you, I was very nervous before the final test. I didn't want to disappoint my pawrents.
My classmates and I were tested on several things - heel, stay, come when called, wait and a couple of others. All of these with the three D's - distance, distraction and duration.
Here I am just before class began - I was practicing my sit/stay...
My classmates - brother and sister (Buddy and Mandy).
That is my instructor - he is such a great teacher!
testing sit/stay with Mandy
Buddy was watching the instructor intently
When's my turn mom?
Mom didn't get any pictures of me during my testing, but I am proud to say that I passed with flying colors! I heard mom & dad say they were impressed and very proud of me.
My graduation certificate and picture :)
Well, Yoda, Brutus & I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!
Great job, Ellie! That's a huge achievement for a little pug! We mostly try to get by on our looks.

Congratulations Miss Ellie! All of us'uns at the Slimmer Puggums are so proud of you...we only have our basic education...but mama thinks a few of us'uns could go intermediate if WE wanted too. Yep! We are happy being simple and ignoring everything else that we know!! It's more training for the hu-moms...not so much us'uns since we are all smart puggies like your family is, too. Anywho? Wesa hope you got something yummy for your graduation.
