[Heel – 5]
Jack unclipped the leash from the Houluh, she would come when called, she really didn’t need it anyway, and snapped her fingers before starting off again. Luna immediately went to her side and the woman smiled down at her and finally stopped walking, patting her head a little and kneeling down to be next to her. While she didn’t know what they were going to work on next, it all made sense at the moment didn’t it? She was a cute little thing, that much was certain, with the little moon on her muzzle and all that. All she could do was wait and see how she was going to be if she grew again. Jack sighed a little bit and shook her head, it was rough and all that, but nothing else was going to happen right now. Nothing was bad, it was just going to take awhile to get through that list…

[Tolerance – 1]
Jack sat down in front of the Houluh after putting away the leash and stared at her for a little bit. She needed to tolerate having her move her, and that was always annoying to try and get done, but it had to be done. Sighing, she reached out and grabbed her paw, only to have it be yanked back with a small growl. She was too loyal to attack her, but she could still warn her and all that. Jack frowned a little and shook her head before reaching out for her paw again. This always took awhile, but it was worth it in the end, especially if they went somewhere and she got trapped or something, it was good to let her move her if she got into trouble. Jack pushed a hand through her hair as the paw was yanked back again, and she frowned a little. She hated doing this part, honestly.

Luna loped around the area for a little bit before she was called over again, Jack made sure she got out some of her energy pretty quickly, she was so full of it, it was hard to do anything else at the moment. She finally trotted over to her and the woman pulled her forward and took hold of her paw. Luna paused for a moment before yelping, even though she wasn’t even squeezing, and yanked her paw back. Jack sighed a little, this was the annoying part, but there was nothing else she could do about it at the moment. At least they were trying, she had to give her that much and all. Shaking her head a little, she let the Houluh pup run off again, wondering what was going to happen as time went on. At least she had an idea of what to train her next, that was a good thing, she figured with a smile.

Really she just needed to mess with her until the pup didn’t jerk away anymore, but that still took some time and she had to make sure she could mess with more than her paw. Jack smiled at her and grabbed at her tail a little bit, enough to let her know she had hold of it, but not enough to hurt her. Luna turned around and bit at her tail a little and whimpered a bit, pulling out of her hand. The woman sighed a little, this always took awhile it seemed, but that was fine, she figured, it didn’t really matter how long it took, they had all day at the Park, probably alone, but maybe not, a lot of people were training for the tournament. Speaking of, she had a couple more things to teach Tobi, but she didn’t know if she would get around to doing that or not. All she had to do was get this done, but how would she get it done when she wasn’t sure what else was going to happen today?

Reaching out, Jack tweaked one of the pup’s ears, making her glower at her for a moment before she was given a little bit of kibble for the trouble. She didn’t know what to do at the moment, but that was fine. She then reached out for a paw and messed around with her claws a little, she would have to trim them soon, and this was the best way for her to get around her shyness a little of taking her paws. Luna let her play for a moment or two and then pulled away again before pawing at the woman a little bit. She was alright with it, for now… Jack grinned a bit and shook her head, taking the paw again as Luna licked her hand. Well then, that was interesting. She reached out for her ears and stroked them before she picked her up and let her lay down on her lap. She was a snuggly puppy, she had to admit that much.

As she laid on the woman’s lap, she breathed a little hard, she’d been running around for awhile trying to get away from her before being called back. It was fun, but it wore her out. Jack took the pup’s paws and messed with them a little, and aside from a few licks of her hands to try and annoy her, that was about it. The woman hugged her and kissed the top of her head before letting her go and run again. That was the perfect time for her to trim her claws, but she hadn’t really thought of that. Jack frowned a bit, oh well, at least now she wouldn’t have to worry about her not letting her mess with her if she got trapped or something. Plus trimming her nails would be so much easier at this point, though maybe she should keep them long so she could claw at her enemies…

So if she was going to enter her into contests in the Hall eventually, she was going to have to learn how to stand pretty. Jack called the Houluh over and re-situated herself on the ground. She had an idea of how to have her stand, it was just getting her to stand like that for long periods of time, she figured. Jack took the Houluh’s front paws and put them side by side, telling her to stay put, then her back legs she staggered. The Houluh popped her tail out a bit whenever the woman lifted it, and then perked her ears and stayed like that since she was told to stay. Still though, it was uncomfortable and she knew it. ”Good pose, Luna!” Jack told her happily, feeding her some treats and letting her stretch out a bit. It was going to take some time to get this done with her being so young, but that was fine as long as she got it.

Jack knew it would take some time before she learned this was everything she meant when she said pose, but that was fine at the same time. It always took a little bit of time, but at least she knew what she was doing, or at least she hoped she knew what she was doing. Chuckling a little, she reached out and rearranged the Houluh into position again, telling her when it was all finished and she stood there the same way she had earlier, ”Good pose, Luna!” The Houluh barked but stayed in place until the woman called her over to her, and she trotted over to get her treats. Jack knew she was doing well so far, but she didn’t know how much longer it was going to take until she didn’t have to move the pup herself and all that. Pushing a hand through her hair, she wished she didn’t have to deal with any of that at this point, but it was her calling as a trainer, she supposed.

There wasn’t much for her to do with this training, but she worked with the pup a few times no matter what. It wasn’t like she didn’t have anything to do at all, it just took some time, she figured. Jack sighed a little as the Houluh pup started to do it on her own whenever told, sometimes she would, sometimes she wouldn’t, and sometimes she would just forget one or two things at this point. ”Good pose, Luna!” she told her when she got it right, and the pup smiled happily at her, tongue lolling out of her mouth still. The pose was a traditional pose, she figured most people would be training their animals this one, and while she had been tempted to try a different pose, this would work the best for the contests she wanted to enter her into at some point, she figured. Jack chuckled and shook her head, she had high hopes for this Houluh.

While the pose was traditional, the species, perhaps, wasn’t as traditional as the dogs that once roamed the area where the Labs was. The Houluh were made from the Labs, though the first species that hadn’t hatched from an egg, which was interesting. There had to be something different about them, she just didn’t know what it was at the moment. Jack sighed a little and shook her head, unsure of what to do with things at the moment, just knowing that she needed to train up her Houluh some more, she had quite the list of things, actually. ”Pose, Luna!” she told the pup for a moment, and the Houluh stopped running around and stood the way the woman had taught her, to which she grinned and tossed her a few treats for doing such a good job. She didn’t know what else to do about it at the moment! At least she was learning, that much was certain.

Whatever happened, she had to be proud of the Houluh for doing so much, she figured with a little smile on her face. She called out to her again, ”Pose, Luna!” The pup stood as still as possible in the pose the woman had taught her, and while she could see her glancing at her out of the corner of her eyes, she wasn’t moving a muscle it seemed. Jack grinned and finally called her over to her and gave her a few treats, rubbing her head as well in between her big floppy ears. She was pleased so far, and that was always a good thing, she figured with a little chuckle. At least she had something to show for all of her work, for all of their work, really. Nothing was worse than nothing coming of the training, but she didn’t know what else to call for it either. What was she going to train her next, anyway?

[At Ease – 1]
They were taking a small break when Luna’s hackles raised a bit and she started to growl, staring at a point in the distance. She normally didn’t act like that, but she didn’t necessarily like other people, but still. It was more of a protective of Jack thing than a she didn’t like other people thing, as much as Jack could take care of herself and all that. Jack looked up a little and saw someone coming toward them, but they stopped when they heard the growling, looking around wildly. ”Easy Luna,” she told the Houluh with a frown and stood up, keeping her at her side as she walked over to the fence of her area. She waved to the person, saw it was a man, and wondered if she had seen him before or not. ”Easy Luna!” Jack snapped again when she started to growl a bit once more, and the Houluh stared at her in surprise. The woman took the opportunity to slip her a treat as she leaned on the fence to watch.

The man finally unfroze and started to walk again, stopping once he saw the Houluh and heard her growling again, though maybe with a little less conviction than before. ”Easy, Luna...” Jack told her, slipping her a treat when she finally calmed down a bit. The Houluh was a little uncertain of what was going on at this point, but she knew things would be alright as long as the woman was around. Stiffly, she wagged her tail, and the woman smiled down at her a little as she leaned on the fence still. It was a cold day, even though it looked nice out and all that, but she didn’t know what else to do at the moment. It was hard to figure out what was going to go on and all that, she figured with a sigh. She waved to the man and pointed at the pup before resting her chin in the palm of her hand, wondering what was going to happen next. At least Luna hadn’t run after him yet.

The man looked a little relieved and started to walk again. It took a moment, but finally Luna started to growl once more, hackles raised. Jack put a hand on her back and told her calmly, ”Easy, Luna.” The Houluh slowly calmed down a bit, though her fur was still raised a little in places, though not nearly as severely. It was good to calm her down around other people, she didn’t need to be threatening everyone who got near, she knew. Now if only she could get her to completely calm down, then things would be fine. Jack soothed her a little more, stroking her fur and all that, and feeding her a couple of treats for a job well done, when her fur finally fell flat against her and she perked her ears a little at the man before barking once. She could see him wince a little, he must not like dogs.

If only she would stop for a bit, but once she felt her fur starting to stand up again, she told her, ”Luna, easy now.” The fur fell flat again almost instantly, but she still whined a little and she could feel her tense up under her fur. Jack whispered to her and fed her a treat, slowly feeling her muscles loosen up a bit and her fur was flat. She just needed that one more push and she would be fine. Finally Luna was back to her normal self, though she didn’t go run and play yet, which was a bad thing at the same time. Jack frowned, she wasn’t sure this was going to work at all, she figured with a little sigh. Whatever, she would get it eventually, she knew it no matter what. Pushing her hair back, the woman put her hand on the Houluh again, ”Easy Luna.” Luna whined, licked her hand, and then went around to sniff at one of the posts.
