Arizona has been a model citizen and is really brightening our home. We've been practicing "come," "crawl," and "up." He has been having fun playing with water that we shoot out of the hose and licking ice cubes out of our hands. We're still working on dropping toys when we play fetch, but we have plenty of time to perfect our game. We've been walking in the neighborhood and running along the canal in the morning. We left him alone in the house for a little while yesterday, and he was a very good boy while we were gone.

We had three friends over to the house last night for dinner and Arizona really showed off what a good boy he is. He was very nice and friendly to everyone and behaved when we were eating dinner. He did tricks for anyone who would play with him and was polite when we were talking and he wasn't the center of attention. He was a superstar.

I can't tell you how much we love this dog.
