My current puppy is 4 months old, I have her when she was 2 months old. I enjoy play with her, walk her everyday and stay home with her. I am patient and I observe animal behavior a lot and try to analyze why they have such behave. Because dog and cat cannot talk, but they still try to communicate with us. So better understanding, better caring. And I love walking dogs. I usually walk my dog at least 45 mins per day. And we go to long distance walk on the trail basically every weekend. My puppy is a lab, she needs a lot of exercise every day, not only physically but also mentally. So I train her to understand my words and my gesture. Also I am learning her words and gesture. It is really interesting process. I would like to do the same with your dog. Making friend with you and your dog.
