12 weeks old, time to start school!
We start with the basics: sit, stay and come. Most of our time, however is spent developing a love for retrieving.
Once Pantera finishes training she will be donated to a military veteran.

My human calls this retrieving, I just call it fun!

We started using something called a "dummy". It's still fun!

Now my human wants me to sit and watch it fly. He says it will help me see where it lands. I'm trying to sit still, but I get excited =)

FEATHERS!!! This is what we are looking for. Retrieving real birds, the scent is awesome!

This obedience stuff is not much fun but it seems to make my human happy.

The obedience stuff may not be fun but playtime sure is! Today I am playing with mom and dad and also grandma Lily. Other days I play with my friends Hershey, Crystal and Gandalf. My human says playtime is as important as lesson time.

I am doing retrieves with my Grandma Lily. My human says this is called "honoring". I wait for my turn.

My human calls this device a retriever-trainer. It throws the dummy a lot farther. Just more fun!

I love to swim and I definitely love retrieving, but put them both together and it's the puppy equivalent of Disneyland! I think Grandma Lily got a little confused though on her double retrieve. Perhaps she thought it was supposed to be my turn on the second one.
Pantera's human here, I just wanted to let people know that I do not use the cattle prod on my dogs during training sessions or at all for that matter. I just have it for security in case of coyote or wild dog attacks.
