Which coast for Christmas?

This Friday, we are off to California for Christmas, but Pita might have to stay in Boston if American Airlines says that it is too cold (under 20 degrees F). In that case, some dog loving super amazing friends will be taking care of her. THANK YOU AGAIN!!! (but I hope she can go with us!)

I know you guys know what to do, but as a puppy's mom, here are a few things to remember to keep Pita on somewhat of a similar schedule/training while we're gone:

Walking:

• You've seen the silly videos of her on walks here on the blog.
• She is getting much better using a lead.
• Here's a video of how to put it on because it took me a few tries to get it right too.
  
• Don't be afraid if she gets excited when she sees another dog and gets out of it. When they are done saying hello, calm her down again and put the lead on again.

Feeding:

• Pita eats ridiculously quickly so we feed her in three stages per meal. Also, it helps any food guarding that might come up if she has to wait for you to allow her to eat. Here's a video:

Training:

• This video shows you how we say and motion each command that she's working on.
