Field Trip

Ok, with four adult pups and two adult humans, we were able to take all ten puppies on their first "field trip". That meant letting them outside for the first time and introducing them to the outdoor dog kennel. 

It was so much fun! At first, they were a little nervous, but then they soon enjoyed all the smells and the sunlight. Kenzie was the enforcer at the backline to make sure they didn't go out of bounds. Reggie was the lead showing them it was ok to follow. Teddy and Tootsie kept running up and down the line keeping them all as calm and assured as possible. Rob was in charge of burr removal and I was their checkpoints. 

They sounded just like birds and kept flocking to me in five step increments. It took a long time, but they finally got in the kennel where Rob and I sat inside with them to get them acclimated. Once they were beginning to fall asleep, we brought them all back in! 

Enjoy the weekend!
