Hey guys!

Mom is busy doing stuff that doesn’t involve me so I stole her laptop. I don’t think she’ll even notice unless one of you snitches on me. Which I’m sure you won’t.

So anyway, it hasn’t always been this way with her being so busy. She’s been taking me to a lot of parks lately.

She says the weather is just perfect, a little cooler, but sunny skies and the trees are just starting to change colors.

She says we can’t waste days like this, so she’s been taking me to a new place almost every day, and I thought you might like to see.

Mostly she’s been training me to pose for her. I wasn’t so sure of this concept at first.

But eventually I figured out that after I pose I get a treat, and that big black thing in front of her face isn’t really scary after all.

Plus I talked to my Angel Sister Katie who told me that treats were an integral part of park visiting and especially posing. I think I’m getting it!

But I could always use more practice, so I’m bugging mom every day to take me somewhere. I find that poking her hard in the knee works pretty good. If you have any other suggestions let me know.

I’m not above taking good advice, no I am not!
Talk later, your professional poser, Penny-girl.

Miss Penny, I love that picture of you on the log — diva, indeed! And who can resist “Shadow Dog”? I think you’re doing an excellent job of posing! Treats help, I’m sure. In your first photo, you’re sitting just like Monk, so I had to smile. Of course, I’d never trust him not to run off! He’d see a squirrel or bunny, and off he’d fly!

She sits kind of like she lays down, with her back legs spread out. They say if I try to compete with her in obedience I’ll have to fix that. Sure.

Pretty Penny looks fabulous in any setting, but I especially like her among the yellow leaves of the fallen branch.

Posing Penny is gorgeous! Now I’m thinking I need to teach Murphy to pose, hmmm… not an easy task, my photos are so random! I think pups are easier to teach the posing!! Great job!! ❤️👍🐴🐾

I’ll have to think about a cue or word to go with the treats. I limit them because he’s a foodie and he’s so big he has to learn restraint, and not get pushy. Haha, I know it shouldn’t be too difficult but the daunting thing is his size!! 😂🐴❤️

She’s getting spayed late October, I want to say 10-26, but not certain. So we probably need to do our play date before then.

Excellent job Penny! Chewy says resting your chin on your mama’s knee and looking up with sad eyes is also effective at making humans aware of your needs (he also approves of your knee bumps, which is one he utilizes as well).
Katie must be so proud of you!

She grew up so fast! She’s at her breeders house right now, as my husband and I were away for 4 nights. It’s her first time being away from us both, but we’ll pick her up tonight. Will be interestingvto see how she reacts, as she LOVES her breeder.
