When Little Ricky passed first time, which surprised his trainer as she said most dogs do not pass the first time they take it . As I didn't decide to have him officially work as a therapy dog until recently, he never had formal training until now. That means all the (sit, down, stay) commands were all new to him, as we've always just carried him in a carrier or purse everywhere. As he topped out at a perfect 4 pounds (fully dressed), everyone perceives him as the" perennial Puppy", and to love on him. My husband is absolutely addicted to Ricky and he has been in restaurants,every kind of store, and theaters, plane rides and one Wedding. He is such a love .
