Barking points: WRAL's dog blog

Hi! I'm WRAL's newsroom dog. I spend most of my work day sleeping in my mom's office, when I'm not getting petted and walked by my newsroom pals. I will also be featured on some upcoming WRAL-TV and WRAL.com segments.

Fun times at AKC event

Hi Friends!

Wow, did I have a G-R-E-A-T weekend! The weather was kind of icky, but I did get some good outside time. And I had the bestest time Saturday at the AKC Responsible Dog Ownership Day event at the fairgrounds. Woo-wee there were a lot of doggies and their pets, I mean humans, there! I saw big doggies (one weighed 240 pounds!) and little-bitty doggies and they were all very nice and well-behaved. Probably better behaved than me! LOL! It was a lot to take in for a pup like me, but I think I did pretty good. I loved meeting everyone (especially the little humans) and I’m really happy my trainer, Ms. Christie, was there cause she helped keep me focused and not get so distracted. Apparently focus is a big thing for doggies. At least, that’s what humans think. But Ms. Christie had a whole bunch of that yummy string cheese and I can ALWAYS focus on that. And my Mom and Dad got real excited cause the nice lady from the AKC, Ms. Deb, told them that I can be a member of their cool club! How about that! Mommy said I should be honored, but I don’t know what that means, so I’ll just go with happy cause starting October 1 the AKC will expand their services for mixed-breed doggies like me with their Canine Partners program. You can find out more about that at www.akccaninepartners.org. Mom wants me to do all this running and jumping through hoops and stuff when I get bigger and with the AKC I will be able to do that with other doggies. Sounds like fun to me! Well, I’m off to my last puppy class at Teamworks. I hope I graduate tonight and they don’t flunk me. Haha! I don’t think I have to worry about that, do you? I’m too smart for my own good! At least that’s what Daddy says! I’ll let ya know how it goes.

See ya!
