Thanks everyone! We couldn't be happier, he is everything we could have asked for! Still training for the therapy route, but we certainly won't force it on him if he isn't enjoying it. He wants a sister…I mean WE want him to have a sister :)... but we're probably going to hold off another couple years before doing so! Especially since we may possibly be moving in the next year or so.

Thank you all for your nice comments!

Thank you! Yes, the puppy came in season She just finished! It went really well with Tillo! He wasn't interested until day 18 and then he was interested until day 23, which was last wednesday. We didn't even need a crate! We just kept them in sight and if we weren't home one got the top of the house and the other the bottom Still happy it's over though..

Your pictures always are such a delight to see, and Tillo and Aiode are such beautiful dogs. When I first joined the Forum the pictures of Tillo you had posted just blew me away, and it is always the same. Congratulations on your winners - you must be so very proud of how well you have trained them!
