Verified owner · Apr. 2022
This sweet little guy is so smart and learns so quickly. Potty training is going very well. In less than 11 weeks old, he is already indicating that he needs to go by sitting at the door. He sits and shakes paw on command. We are so impressed with how quickly he masters basic skills. He is all puppy with a sweet tender personality. We are totally in love with this little guy.
