Where's the camera cord?

I have so many updates that I want to put in there about Charlie, but we haven't unpacked the camera cord yet. I'm hoping to get to that today.

So far Charlie is loving the new house, except for the fact that most of the time we have to keep him on a long leash. We are still unpacking and there is stuff EVERYWHERE. And trust me, he only needs a small window of opportunity to get into A LOT of trouble. He's been pretty barky lately... trying to communicate what he wants. We are doing our best to ignore him when we know he just wants attention, so he doesn't get positive reinforcement for his barking. Then when he stops we go give him some loving.

He started puppy training class last week. Pete took him out to our breeder's house. She runs the training course. Pete said he was an A+ student. Of course we had already taught him sit and stay, and he did pretty good. Though anytime that treats are involved, Charlie gives his full attention. He LOOOOVES cheese and thinks it's the best treat in the world!

We've been taking him for more and more walks. It helps us meet the neighbors too. Who wouldn't want to come meet us with a cute adorable puppy? Little Ronnie across the street told me that he would watch Charlie anytime we needed. He loves him! The neighbors have an older Golden, so he's very used to dogs, which is nice.

We have another training class tonight. There are 6 altogether and Charlie will learn more sitting, staying, heeling, how to walk well on a leash... etc... and hopefully we can curtail his barking a little bit. The best part of class is that we get to see him with some of his litter mates. There are 4 of them altogether in the class from his litter.

I promise, pictures soon!
