Here is where it all starts, with a puppy.
Play with the little rascal, become pals.
Socialize the pup taking it to parks, stores, schools, puppy classes, dog shows, hiking, people events.
And if you are so fortunate you and your dog 'connect' and a new world opens up to you!
More than a pet, a pal who is equally enthusiastic to explore life with you!
Could be a mountain trail, the beach, competitive dogsports, field of sheep, whatever the plan for the day might be.
