It has been a long time since I posted, but things have been great recently. The boys have a new dog-walker, Kate whom they love. Beth and I also love her, since we get a daily update on her visit with them, and both Kate and the business owner Nina really seem to care about their well-being. If you are a reader in the Pittsburgh area, I recommend looking at

Not only does this make their day happier, but it frees me up to not have to worry about being home on time to ensure there aren't any accidents in the house.
In addition to his new pal Kate, Miles is adjusting to life at our house. He has completed basic training and is now enrolled in a Canine Good Citizen class. He understands the basic commands of sit, lie-down, and come. He also does a very endearing "roll-over." We are now working on his ability to handle commands when we are outdoors and encountering distractions.
Additionally, he seems more and more comfortable playing with other dogs. Today we took them to the park and Miles played with a Great Dane named "Goofy." It was a blast to watch them chase each other and run themselves ragged. Miles also chased a squirrel and a bird, thankfully with no success.
New pictures will be posted soon.
