New Puppy Visit Part 2

After the puppy went home Cooper investigated every inch of the house that the puppy touched.

He smelled the chair, the floor, his dog bowl, the dog chew... EVERYTHING.

If I didn't know better I would think this looked like he thought he was trying to say... "Next time you should ask me before you let a puppy come over."

New Puppy Visit Part 1

Our friends dropped by with their new 8 week old puppy named Harley.

Harley was very calm and curious.

He's about 2 pounds lighter than Cooper.

Harley found Cooper's chew bones that he never showed much interest in.

He chewed it for a little while but couldn't really figure out how to really get his teeth into it.

Cooper watched him try for a little while.

Then it wasn't long before this baby fell asleep.

Cooper still kept a distance from him.

He wouldn't even go close enough to rescue his Aflac duck from little Harley.

Learning About Horses 6 - Doing GREAT Alone

When I was finally able to step back and let him be.

He stayed low at first. 

The horse would step a little and graze on the grass.

Cooper had been feeling that all along so he wasn't  very concerned with that.

At this point he was wondering why I stepped back and not touching him any more.

At some point he was ok with me being back a bit and he started to look around.

Instinctively he usually goes to a high spot so he can see everything.

It seems that now he realizes this in another really good high spot to be in.

He was comfortable enough to sit up more and really look around.

Look how comfortable he is here.
