Bailey goes to school

The doorbell rings. It's that guy in the brown outfit delivering another package to our house! I gotta defend my Mom! Quick! Loud barking to scare him away!

My sister Sunni is visiting from Boston. She brings over her girlfriend. Quick! Loud barking and growling will teach HER never to come to our house again! 

For some reason, these and other antisocial behaviors gave Mom & Dad the dumb idea to send me to Obedience School.

At first I was pretty scared. Most of the other students, like Caesar, are MUCH bigger than me. But all the parents did a good job keeping their dogs close by. As the weeks went on, I got more and more confident that I'd make it though class alive!

By the end of the eight weeks, I made many new friends of all breeds and from all over the world. It was very cool. I learned a few things, like how to walk close to Mom & Dad, and how to sit for a treat. Marion said I did so well, I get to take the class all over again! Maybe this time I'll learn how to lie down and roll over. And not scare away all Mom & Dad's friends!

The Big Day

Here I am  with a proud mom taking pictures at the graduation. Notice my cap and red bow tie for the occasion!

Marion is our instructor.  Here's a picture of me, Marion and Mom at the beginning of our classes. By the end of the eight weeks, I even let Marion give me a treat without growling! Aren't I the advanced one!

Here I am with my Dad and some of my classmates. You'll notice these guys are alot bigger than me, but I've got alot of heart!

Here's Caesar and his Mom. I think Caesar is bigger than his Mom! But he is a good boy and was very nice to me. Love that choke chain

Say hi to Lucy and her Mom. Lucy is a Jack Russell  with lots of energy. Lucy is a good singer, too!

Marion & Me!
