First Puppy Class

Monday was our first puppy class (finally!). Unfortunately we had to leave Nova at home for the first class, but we got a good lecture and a ton of reading material... plus a homework assignment! Our homework assignment is to associate the word YES with food rewards - essentially, this is the same thing as clicker training but with your voice instead of a plastic clicker.

We have started our homework assignment and Nova is picking it up really quickly. Not too surprised there, she is a smart girl!

Can't wait to actually bring her to class and meet the other puppies! We are hoping she doesn't squish any of them since she is a little old to start class (14 weeks) and is also a big girl (25+lbs)!
