Legal Age for Flyball

He's 1 year old!

And he's grown incredibly smart since we picked him up from the pound a mere 4 months ago. Besides taking over our blog and lives somewhat, he's picked up a few tricks along the way. Let's recap shall we?

Sit
Wait
Up (kind of came with this one already)
Low Ten (parental favorite)
Lay Down
Roll Over

Now, things he just won't shake the habit of that we're hoping by the time he's 2 will be gone:

Chewing books, mostly the expensive and rare ones
Chasing squirrels, whatever the cost
Shedding (c'monnnnn perma-fur coat)
Jumping up to greet people

So what's next for the bert? Well, how about getting him into agility classes so he can learn to catch a frisbee better (at all) and maybe flyball with his friend Ho-D. Backpacking is soon to be on the agenda. Maybe next year he'll come mountaineering....maybe.

Happy B-day Duke! Here's some peanut butter for you to lick off a knife!

Here's a vid of him opening his gift from Grandma.















(Grandma always buys him the best gifts.)














Some vids of him swimming at 10,000 acres can be found here and here.
