The pups are doing very well with crate training for their daytime naps.  This week they will begin to sleep in their individual crates for overnight sleeping.  Outside training is continuing.  They go outside first thing in the morning, then they come in to eat followed by another trip outside.  They have already learned the “Inside” command and come running to the door once I give the command.  That is followed by “come front”  (come to me) command which tells them to  come to me in the kitchen.  They play for a short period of time before tiring out.  I call them to come “bed” and they come running as they know they will get a treat in their bed.  I cover the crates with a sheet and they immediately quiet down for their nap.
