Meet Sailor, he’s my new boy. At 17 months old he’s still a puppy discovering his world. This morning, it was ducks on the pond. He kept running to the pond then returning to me…Look! Ducks! Come on, DUCKS! Yep, Whimsday Bliss!
Junior retrievers are easily distracted. When retrievers are tested at this age, they are on lead, because sometimes they just can’t contain their enthusiasm! Young Kinta is more steady than Sailor, but he knows us more. Sailor is still figuring us out.
that photo – and your narrative – reflect pure joy!

I really wanted a shot of them all in the same view…but the ducks weren’t hanging around…and Sailor wasn’t slowing down. So much fun!

yes, it would probaby be difficult to get them to sit-stay with the ducks distracting their attention as well!
