Shedding MANIA & Paws Abilities '06

I took advantage of the 70 degree weather today and brushed Winston for awhile. I can't believe how much he's shedding. Oh, and where in the WORLD did this dander come from? He's never had any before! I am thinking about starting him back up on some supliments.

I was so pleased w/ Winstons general behavior at Paws Abilities. He responded 99% of the time to my voice only! When Laura got a minute to come see him, he turned into his old happy silly puppy pants self. It was such a kodack moment, and guess who didn't bring her camera! He is honestly the perfect SD to me. After a few minutes of being allowed to socialize he stopped on his own and went back to maintaining perfect eye contact. He is such a great dog.

He has been a huge huge huge brat about me training the puppy. Instead of locking him in another room while I work w/ him, I've been cutting his breakfast in half and giving it to him in his Busy Buddy with some nice frozen peanut butter to hold it in longer.
