🐾 Raising puppies is not always easy. 𝐼𝑡’𝑠 𝑎𝑙𝑤𝑎𝑦𝑠 𝑎𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑢𝑝𝑠 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑑𝑜𝑤𝑛𝑠. There will be days when your puppy makes you the proudest owner on this earth 😊🐶 and there will be days where they will make you question your knowledge as an owner and trainer. 😅🤔

Don’t forget that puppies are living beings, they are changing every day and will continue to do so throughout the rest of their lives. The puppy you know today is not the same puppy you will know a year from now. Every experience and every training session will shape who they will grow up to be, so don’t feel discouraged. Of course, every one of us has a genetic predisposition which we are working with, but don’t let that discourage you because nothing is set in stone. Be curious and grow with your puppy with every coming day. 🌱🐾
