Today were celebrating another milestone birthday! JJ, who I've always called my "boy of firsts" is a big 14 today which is another "first" for him, as he is the first Newf I've had the priviledge of having this long with.
JJ's other first include being my first born puppy out of my first litter. The first Newf I trained and showed in conformation. The first Newf I put a CD, DD and WD on.
He taught me a lot about how to train Newfs and alot about taking humiliation with grace and good humor. Anyone who saw him at water tests knows what I'm talking about.. Linda, I think you might have been around to see the "geese" incident! :roflmao:
An intact male with the hardly an attention span can be quite the challenge to train!
Anyways, Happy Birthday my dear sweet boy. I am hoping for at least one more year with you, and hopefully more beyond that. You have so many things to "teach" your great-great newphew baby Kiefer!!
