Amy Jensen. Hello everybody. Welcome to the puppy training podcast. I am so glad you're here.

This means that you are investing time in wanting to train your dog, which any training you do is not wasted.

I think it's all good and important in wanting to build a relationship with your dog, which is

what we are all about. So today I want to share our progress with little Bella. We've had Bella

since March, the end of March, and she's coming up on six months of age. And I thought, you know what? Let's do a little Bella. We've had Bella since March, the end of March, and she's coming up on six months

of age, and I thought, you know what, let's do a little update. So we've been doing some social

media with her. You've seen some video clips of her. One of them that we did recently was on

outside, of course, then she'll come back in and she'll go find

my husband she'll run right up to where he is first thing that's what she wants to do is go say hi

to him because she loves him and then when my girls come down for the morning she does the same

thing to them so she just loves our family and she shows that by she taught this to herself she

just picks up her little snuggle puppy holds it it in her mouth, and then squills.
