Smillie, a bundle of energy, full of zest,
Loves long walks and playtime, she's at her best.
Chew toys and games, they're her absolute joy,
A playful spirit in every girl and boy.
With other dogs, she'll happily engage,
If they embrace her temperament, the perfect stage.
Housebroken and well-mannered, she's a delight,
But with cats, she's cautious, takes a different flight.
In Smillie's presence, excitement takes flight,
A canine companion with endless light.
For those who embrace her vivacious charm,
Smillie's a friend who'll keep you warm.

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
