I swear, I should just get a second camera. Mine is never where I need it when I want it. I've missed so many great photo opps with the pups!

Yesterday, Browser finally mastered the Buster Cube. He's not as coordinated as Widget is, of course, but he finally seemed to understand the concept and got his first bits of kibble out of it. He was pretty cute with his big floppy paws trying to manipulate it.

Widget was a very good girl this weekend. Didn't bark once!! Laura and Adrian were here yesterday and Widget didn't bark upon their arrival, or when she greeted them!!! Such progress!!! She did jump up a little, but I'll take that over the barking.

We're also using something called Peaceful Paws on her. It's a bit like Rescue Remedy, but only it actually works . I got it from her school, it's a blend of essential oils developed by a pet massage therapist here in town. You rub it on their chest/neck where they can breathe the soothing aroma in. Works wonders!!!! We had a really, really windy day on Saturday - which normally freaks Widget out. Not this time. This stuff just helps settle any anxiety the pup has. I love it! That and doggy daycare are going to get Widget and me thru puppyhood
