So what time do you walk Maple?  <LOL>  We are all going to come over and 
have Torrey show us where the "goods" are and have him help us carry them 
out! <snicker>

Wonder why she won't close the door behind her?  Hum not a very well 
trained puppy eh?  Must be that troublesome temperament I breed for!  <VBG>

Note:  I am still getting such a chuckle out of the comment from Casey's 
trainer.

BTW, Abigail Rogers who is in the class we are in for basic obedience, is 
as well very ill tempered.  In class she is the class clown, cant walk in a 
straight line pulls Deb allover the room, wont sit, forget a long down for 
15 seconds <smile> ect.  But after class Deb showed us all the tricks 
Abigail knows:  sit, down, roll over, shake both paws, leave it:  She puts 
a cookie crumb on one of Abigail's paws and tells her leave it.  While 
Abigail salivates and wants the treat she waits till given a command to get 
the treat!   So very cute!  She is yes very active and distracted out in 
public like others of you have noted about your pup's.  It's just puppy 
stuff and while I am not saying ignore it you do need to get them to focus 
it's all very normal.
