Hugo's second day of school, but a bigger challenge than the first.  I had a study group that lasted several hours and I decided to take him along since he had done so well yesterday.  Five students crammed into a tight cubicle, so Hugo had to fit under the table.  We were the first ones to arrive, and I had to tell each of the other students to be careful not to step on him.  He was so quiet under the table, again settling right in, so I knew they wouldn't realize he was there otherwise.  Although many feet were within reach, Hugo didn't bother anyone.  Four hours later, we returned home for lunch and then headed out to KMart for a few items.  Hugo is doing well at figuring out where to stand in relation to the cart.  For some reason, KMart has floors that really shine and they have been a distraction for many of my dogs in the past.  Hugo was only slightly interested in the reflections, but instantly refocused on the task at hand.  I typically make a big loop around a store, even if I'm there for only one or two items.  I always hit the toy isles and push all of those annoying noise makers for the puppy to hear.  The holidays are usually the best for those types of things, so we have something to look forward to.
