| The "sit-happens" contest. The fastest sitting dog after the
"sit" command wins. Kuma wins this heat and makes it to the finals. |
The Finals....Kuma is just a second slower than the Golden in the
center. But second place isn't bad. |

Kuma worried about the dogs behind him most of the evening |

Well, Kuma fought the snoot-loop a lot and worried much to much about
other dogs, but I still have to give him a kiss. |
|
|
| Last exercise - Start of the "Stay" command, going no farther than
directly in front of the dog |

|
| End of the class. |
|
| Practice balancing a dog biscuit on the nose for next weeks contest.
Well, all I had was a hot dog bit, but it's there on his nose. |
CLICK!!! and Kuma drops it in my hand |
 |
 |
| This is Kuma's end (again) |
This is everyone else's end (again) |
 |
 |
| Kuma sometimes still leans against me for assurance |
