There are few things Chesty loves more than getting outside and running with his people. And when that activity involves tasty treats it's even better. It's been a bit of a crazy few weeks and I will go on record as saying that puppy training is not for the faint of heart. I would never, under any circumstances, recommend taking it on when the oldest child is too young to carry a good chunk of responsibility. Travis, Sam and Caroline are doing well, but I think they are even glad that there are three of them to help spread the work out a little bit.
I am also really thankful that we had a good idea of what and how we were going to train him and that we were all ready and on the same page before he came home. The up front investment in time is pretty costly, but he's a really sweet puppy and I have very high hopes that this investment will pay off well in the end.
Chesty is already very loyal, really smart, he learns willingly and easily, loves his crate (huge!) and is starting to not eat his own poop any more. See, I told you he's a genius!
