Griffin

My little guy is doing so great. He is super smart. But, as sweet as he is, he does have his demon moments....like when we found him outside the other day gnawing on something....hmmm what was it? Our tortoise!! Griffin likes to chew on rocks, and Speedy (our tortoise) must have looked like a crawling rock to him. We're working on keeping him out of Speedy's habitat all together. The trainer came out yesterday and we worked on staying back when someone rings the doorbell, walking on a leash, and staying away from Speedy's habitat!!! Griffin knows when the trainer is here, it's time to WORK!! He's so exhausted by the time she leaves, that he sleeps for the rest of the afternoon. She's really good at what she does. (If you're looking for a good in-home dog trainer, let me know and I'll give you her phone number.) Oh, the trainer (her name is DaCoda, by the way) brought her dog with her to help her teach Griffin some stuff, and her dog (Halo) decided to jump in our pool! So funny. Seriously, the dog can JUMP! She even had him in a contest and he jumped 19 feet into a pool! Well, while Halo was in the pool, we decided to let Griffin give it a try. He didn't mind the first step where he was wet up to his chest, but then he tried to walk...and let's just say he didn't make it to the 2nd step. He went for a swim. Nice to know he can swim! It was cute. Anyway, it was a good day and now we will work hard to help him remember all of the things DaCoda has taught him. Good doggy!

Halo jumping in the pool!

He was not sure what to think.

Griffin & Halo getting to know each other.

This is from the other day. When Griffin is playing fetch, he finds the needs to JUMP from the brick into the grass. It's hilarious.
