Speak !

Preston learns to speak, although he may be a bit loud sometimes.

Take a bow

Preston would do anything for a treat. It took him only 5 mins to learn and a few days to master.

Toys, Toys and More Toys

Preston is spoiled by mommy and daddy with a lot of toys. Here are 9 of his favorite.

Not only does he play with his toys, but he knows them each.

While we were playing this video, Preston must have heard it because he started to get us his toys!

Leave It Part II

Part of obedience training is to “leave it” on the floor to prevent a bad habit of eating off the floor.
Do you think we spoil him too much by having so many choices of treats?

Trick Recap

Preston has been busy learning to be obedient, but he hasn’t forgotten all the tricks he’s learned.

Obedience Training

1) Leave It and Take It

2) Stay and Come

3) Wait and Go

4) Wipe your Paw
Preston knows “Wipe your butt” too (we’ll leave that to your imagination)

First Christmas

After wearing the reindeer hat, he was ready to open his first Christmas gift. He normally loves to rip up paper and boxes and we usually tell him no, this is the one day that we encouraged it !! Santa brought him a new cow toy and a pig ear to chew on. Preston’s so smart that he learned the name of his new toy “cow” within a day. Of course within a few hours, the pig ear was no more.

Catch me if you can

As we do on any good weekend, we brought him to the Redwood City Dog Park. Since it was Christmas weekend, we weren’t sure how many dogs would show up. Apparantly there were only a few dogs and they were mainly on the bigger side so we took him to the big dog side and let him run around with the big dogs. Preston’s not afraid of any dog of any size and will play happily with them. There were 2 big black dogs that he especially liked to play with. Either he would chase them or he would be chased. With his short legs, it was difficult to outrun them and it was only a matter of time before they caught up to him. Love the way his ears fly up when he runs.

New Bed I

Sleeping is very important to Preston and he’s extremely picky about where he sleeps. He likes something soft and plush. When mommy saw this bed, she knew it was the one for him. Once we brought the bed home, he immediately inspected it to make sure it’s up to his standard by sniffing it, licking it (to mark his territory), and biting it. The new bed passed the test as he loves sleeping in it.

FYI: Preston’s bed is Candy Stripe Snuggle Bed (Large) by New York Dog.

Dancing with a Puggle

Preston is ready to take the “Dancing with the Stars” challenge. He’ll win just by his cuteness. This took him the longest to learn so far because of the increased technical difficulty. He wasn’t a natural jumper and had to learn to stand on his hind legs.
