I feel like we've just passed a massive milestone!
For the past few weeks Freya has been really great with her crate - I mean going into it when I tell her 'crate'. Sometimes I'd have to use a firm voice, and for the times when she was being stubborn I would guide her with her collar towards the crate as she's way too heavy now to pick up.
She has learned that when I say enthusiastically ' Do you need to go for a pee?' it means she is going to go outside and she trots off to the back door like a good little girl.
Tonight after letting her back in from her toilet break, I took the washing out of the dryer and walked to where Freya was. There she was in the lounge room waiting for me to open the crate door for her to go inside and laydown ready for bed.
I am so incredibly proud of my baby girl. I honestly never thought I'd get to this stage of her just knowing when it's time for bed and her doing it without being told.
My little Missy Moo is getting so clever
