Marvin had a blast walking through vendors and crowds on Fayetteville Street. He got to practice being petted by lots and lots of people. Because he’s such a happy cute dog, everyone wants to reach out and grab him when he’s jumping, so I asked each person who petted him to help with his training by not petting him if his front paws came off the ground. Everyone was happy to comply! He did an excellent job walking past balloons, bouncy houses, and all sorts of new distractions. Afterwards he settled with Maya while we grabbed coffee, then hung out in a shoe store while we humans browsed. What a day for Marvin!
