When we started the intermediate class & I heard the requirements to pass the test I thought there wasn't a prayer in hell this dog would pass.  After 2 weeks, I thought, "He just might do it!"  Well he did & I'm the proud, proud mama.  We stopped on the way home & I bought him a frozen yogurt cone(his first).  He licked all the ice cream out carefully & I had to show him he could eat the cone.  He then ate the whole thing.  I hope he doesn't throw up.
