HELPING YOUR PUPPY GROW

With your help, your puppy will grow through
four stages: New born, One Week, One Year,
and Full Grown. In each stage, your puppy
will be able to play new games and perform
more tricks.

To help your puppy grow into the next stage,
you will be responsible for feeding, walking
and praising her each day. You will have a
minimum amount of responsibilities for each
stage. For example, in your puppy's New
born stage, you must feed her 3 times, walk
her 2 times and praise her 3 times. (You can­not feed or walk your puppy more than once
per hour, but you can praise her as much as
you'd like!)

Your puppy's day will end at midnight, so you
must have completed the food, walk and
praise responsibilities by that time. If you
have completed your responsibilities for that
day, your puppy will advance to the next
stage. If you do not meet your responsibili­ties by midnight, your puppy will let you know
that he's unhappy. (see section “Grad.” on
below label.)
