Sparta is going to get a lot of extra time being out and about in the months to come. It is easier to acclimate a puppy to lots of fun new experiences than to teach a grown dog that they are not as scary as they appear once the mind has already decided what is normal and what is cause for panic, agitation, and fear.
So this last week Sparta got to take a walk through "Big Time Minneapolis." She got to see the Mississippi for the first time and walk through a busy farmer's market where she was the center of attention from crazy dog ladies and enthusiastic toddlers alike.
I continue to be surprised by how many people think she is an eight-week old Labrador Retriever. Expectations really do
influence what we see.
