In the Game


......or not, as the case may be.

Landry gives us a classic example of being over his threshold in this environment. Is he stressed? Absolutely not. He's just way too distracted by the world on the other side of the windows, the new human friends sitting in the room (who did a wonderful job, by the way, of folding their arms and not giving Landry any eye contact when he jumped up saying, "Look at me! Look at me! Aren't I a cute puppy?"), the smells, Molly over in the corner and Mallory in her tent.

He gave a half hearted response to Mark and Lynn's attempt to involve him in The Come Game, but at this point in the class, he was still not ready to focus on trainers or treats.

No sense in continuing. We'll try again later.
