New Doggie Bed

Took Dudley a few tries to get used to climbing out of his new bed. His back end gets stuck and he (cleverly I thought) grabs the side of the bed with his teeth and uses his front as leverage to literally drag his rump out of the bed. That happened the first couple times, though. Now he's jumping in and out like an old pro.

We started training exercises today as part of his puppy kindergarten class. You have to hold a treat up to your face and say 'Yes' which is the mark word. This is followed by saying his name, then when he looks at you (and not the treat), you say Yes and give him the treat. We did it about 45-50 times in 3 different sessions today. Towards the last session he was literally resting his head on my lap while he was looking up at me. Someone needed a nap I guess!
