    Things have been going very well. I actually ended up joining a training academy monthly (like Netflix for dogs). All positive proactive training. Their Facebook group is so amazing!

    I realized so much from teething pains, to frustration (unable to wait yet) keeping training sessions 5 minutes several times a day and ensuring Sully sleeps 18-20 hours per day - lots of calm time in between.

    Sully is 100% potty trained. He even rings the bell now when he has to go out or I will just let him out and tell him to go potty. Hasn't had any accidents. We were concerned he was also hungry which was also contributing to his frustration. I don't do 4 hours cut off time anymore for food.

    Everything is riding smoothly. Today was a lovely day. It is nice to see a light at the end of chaos! Lol

    It is. Now we are just working in between the teething stage - I guess some puppies have it harder than others.

    Teething is never fun! Have you got a Kong you can fill and freeze? Always find those work wonders :)
