More puppies!

Well, I managed to do well enough in a couple of obedience trials with my little Hoshi to earn another few hundred dollars, which gave me enough to buy a second puppy. And so, Hana (a beautiful little golden lab) has come to join the family. I entered her in a disc catching trial almost right away (without any practice beforehand) and she actually did okay, getting just enough points to get a bronze trophy and advance to the next class. Hoshi, on the other hand, was knocked back a class in the obedience trials because I can't figure out how to teach him to beg. I just can't quite get him into that position (though when I pull his paw up for shaking, he lifts his second paw a little off the ground -- I wonder if that's close enough). When on walks, both puppies have made at least one friend. Hana ran into a puppy she didn't like much at all. They actually started nipping at each other! I was suprised. I had started to think the worst that would happen was they'd be indifferent. I'm having so much fun with them. I'm waiting to buy a third pup until J comes over this weekend. Apparently, if we link up, it'll unlock his breeds for me and mine for him, so that I can buy a beagle or a husky maybe. Technorati Tags: Games Nintendo DS Nintendogs
