Redtick puppies rock!

During my first day at puppy socialization training, I got to play with the delightful Redtick puppies.  There are three of these gals and they are absolutely adorable.  They're getting more comfortable around people, but once they spend a minute with you, they want nothing more than to never leave your lap again.  Unless, of course, there's a cool toy to fetch or chew on or a treat reward for sitting.  They're doing great at learning a few basics already and will make wonderful family friends for anyone.  Here are a couple photos and videos of two of the three girls.

Meet Becky!

Becky is an absolute sweetheart of a puppy. She's about 7-8 months old Border Collie mix who is looking for a human to love. I got a chance to take her for a walk and out to play this weekend and this girl wants nothing more than to be your best friend. She is happy to walk with you on a leash, play some fetch in the yard or sit for a treat. Who can say no to that face?!

Meet Bernie

Bernie is one cool guy once you get to know him.  Initially, he seemed a little shy in his kennel.  But once I got him out and about, this boy showed he was full of love and energy.  We walked along the paths and stopped to rest at a bench for a minute where I was rewarded with lots of kisses and a new lap warmer.  Bernie is just starting to get the hang of sit, but he is eager to please and wants nothing but your love and attention.  Who can resist this expression?  This guy would do really well as your one and only since he seems way more interested in your attention than the treats I was trying to feed him.
