Home Sweet Homer

After getting home, picking up our mail at the post office we went to pick up Homer at Triple Crown. There was a small snafu, because they thought we were going to pick him up on Sunday, but everything worked out. We had a hard time believing that the dog they gave us was the same one we left two weeks ago. Homer seems more self confident, doesn't shy away from people and walks really well on a loose leash. He also learned the "place" command. We need to be sure to reinforce the stuff he learned in keep building on top of that. In any case, I highly recommend Triple Crown and their In-Kennel Training. Our trainer was Kim Kelly (kkelly@triplecrowndogs.com) and we (and Homer) were very impressed and pleased with him.

We also got Homer a Zoom Groom which is a rubber brush made by Kong. The shedding season is starting and the Zoom Groom seems to work very well at getting rid of Homer's loose hair and he seems to like it. It also worked very well when we were giving him his bath.
