🎓🐾 Kindergarten Graduate Spotlight: Lilibet! 🐾🎓

When Lilibet first joined our Puppy Kindergarten Class, she was absolutely terrified - so much so that she preferred to stay tucked under mom’s chair.

But over the past six weeks, we’ve had the privilege of watching this sweet girl blossom! With patience, gentle guidance, and lots of encouragement (and treats!), Lilibet slowly started to peek out… then participate… and eventually, she was cautiously but confidently joining in class activities.

Her progress isn’t just because of our class, though.

Lilibet’s incredible transformation is also thanks to her amazing owners, who:
🐶 Advocated for her when pressured to try harsh methods
💛 Chose patience over punishment
🏆 Created a safe, supportive environment for her to grow

Watching a shy, scared puppy bloom into a confident learner is one of the most rewarding parts of positive reinforcement training. We couldn’t be prouder of Lilibet and her humans!
