A puppy keeps you busy

It is really hard to post often with such a busy puppy. We have been to a friends house that has Shelties to have our ears done. We have been to the beach. We have found out we like to sing and we like herding Ducks and Chickens! Below are two videos of Archer howling to my son's recorder and tonight a chicken got out of the chicken yard and Archer decided it was time to herd the little girl. Some real talent is brewing here.

The Training begins

It is so hard to post when you have a 10 week old puppy. It is like having a 18 month old child, they are everywhere at all times. But I will try. I have started some very light training with Archer, sit, down and a recall. Recall is mainly for this week. I am doing some clicker training and some positive but traditional training. We will see... On Tuesday Archer gets his ears fixed, hopefully he will have proper sheltie ears with out too much trouble.
