A Graduation!!

Ellie here pawing at the keyboard...  I haven't yet had a chance to tell you all about my graduation from the beginner education course I took at PetSmart.

Of course I graduated...  I am a smart puppy - just like my furiend Archie!!

My instructor took us out into the store to test us on everything that me and my pawrents had learned.  Needless to say, I passed with flying colors.  The instructor said that my pawrents need to continue working on things with me to help me get them down pat so that I can start the intermediate course at the end of August!!

Here is my graduation certificate...

 ...and my Graduation picture.  The Irish Setter that graduated with me is named Jake - look at him sticking his tongue out at me!

I can't wait to start my next class!!  The instructor, Craig, is a super cool guy and I can't wait to see him again (he always has yummy treats for me).

Chillin' with the Pug Posse and a New Friend

Since last week was such a long hard week for us all, we got some new shirts and then we got to go have some fun at the Pug Posse's house.  Our new shirts are nice and toasty warm - PetSmart had them on sale for 50% off! I got camouflage and Brutus got hunter orange.

On our way!

As usual the Pug Posse was so much fun. They have a new foster pug named Romeo - mom kept gushing over how cute he was. She did reassure us that we were still at the top of the cuteness scale in her eyes :)

Dad played ball with Gus - just look at that tongue!!

Our lovely friend Lilo was there too!  Here she is trying to figure out how to get at that bowl of food.

Here I am scouting out the room to see who had an open lap :)

Brutus found a nice spot on dad's lap.

We had a very nice evening and we were pretty worn out - we slept all the way home and then went straight to bed when we finally got home.
