There is power in learning. Puppy School Graduation was a proud moment for the three of us. Milly has been a star. We adults have had to listen, communicate, be consistent in our actions, encourage each other and commit to daily training. We have learnt to work as a team as well as developing individual skills. We have also had lots of fun ... which is so important for learning. What are you learning at the moment? How do you like to learn? Any puppy tips?! #learning #personaldevelopment #people
