[No - 5]
Jack was pleased with how well Moonbeam learned though, and she made one last attempt to get to the treats, but Jack just had to tell her and she backed off, "No, Moonbeam!" The woman sighed a little and patted the Houluh puppy on the back as she backed off and whined again. The woman wasn't naturally mean after all, and she gave her a little treat for doing a good job with this one. At least after this the rest of the training should go pretty quickly and smoothly, the woman thought at least with a smile, and she hoped that all she was going to have to do was worry about the rest of it before they were in the Hall and her show would be put on. She knew she needed a few Matronne to go along with all of her Patronne at this point, most of her Houluh were Patronne, but not like Moonbeam could breed with most of the Kennel anyway.

Now that it was over, they could move on to something new. The little puppy was starting to get a little bigger, and she knew it was only a matter of time before they had to do her show. Things needed to be finished before she could manage that though, and so she doubled down in order to get the training finished. Smiling, she held out a treat and walked away from the Houluh puppy, "Follow me, Moonbeam!" The little puppy sniffed at the treat and then ran after the woman with a bark, getting the treat when she followed for a few steps behind her. Jack was pleased already, Moonbeam learned quickly, though it would be awhile before she did it on command and all that. Things would be fine though, and she hoped that everything would be what she wanted for it to be at this point, which was hard to discover.

Jack loved the little Houluh and knew it was only a matter of time before she grew up to be a gorgeous adult. Until then, though, she had to worry about what she was doing with the puppy. Pushing her hair back, she plopped a hat on her head and smiled a little before pulling out another treat and walking away from her, "Follow me, Moonbeam!" Jack glanced behind her and saw the puppy following behind her, big paws getting in the way every now and then as she ran after her and then got the treat for doing so well. She was happy with the progress they were making, and knew it wasn't going to take long to get things done, which was definitely a good thing in her eyes, wasn't it? Rubbing the back of her neck, she popped it after a moment and then shook her head, at least she had something to focus on.

In the end of everything, at least she had her animals, she knew. Jack reached out and tousled the Houluh's ears about for a moment and then started to walk away with another treat held out once again, "Follow me, Moonbeam!". Smiling a little, the woman glanced back and all that, and hoped that everything would be alright in the end of it all. With Moonbeam running behind her, she reached out and then smiled before giving her the treat again as she watched her figure out what was going on. There were wheels in her head grinding, she could tell it, and she knew that getting a treat didn't mean much to the woman, but at least it meant something to the Houluh. Smiling, she patted her on the head again and then shook her head a little in return, hoping that everything was going to go well when it was all said and done.

Jack had a lot of experience with animals, it seemed, ever since she had come here from the plantation. Giving a little sigh, she sometimes wondered if maybe she had too much experience, or if that was even a thing when it came down to it. Jack rubbed Moonbeam's head for a bit and then held out a small treat again, "Follow me, Moonbeam!" The little Houluh trotted after her as she walked away and then barked a little with an impatient look on her face. Things were going too well for the woman to mess it up now, and she gave her the treat after they walked for a few moments, the Houluh puppy behind the woman. Jack was happy about things that were happening at the moment no matter what, and she really hoped they could get the rest of the training done after a little while in the Park again.

With everything going so smoothly, the woman smiled and started walking away from the Houluh again, glancing over her shoulder and saying, "Moonbeam, follow me!" The Houluh immediately jumped up and trotted after her, a few steps behind her as they walked around, and the woman smiled a little at the thought. Finally she stopped and reached down to ruffle the Houluh's ears for a moment with a grin on her face and then realized things weren't going to be the same whenever she was old enough to be grown to an adult. It was going to be fine, she knew, and she just hoped she could roll with things whenever all of her Houluh were going to be fully grown, if that would ever happen, she figured. Giving a little laugh, the woman rubbed the puppy's back for a bit to give her a little break and then wondered what to do next.

Move - 1
Jack stretched out and then walked toward the Houluh puppy with a smile on her face. She nudged her lightly out of the way with her foot, "Move it, Moonbeam." The Houluh yipped and fell over onto her back before rolling over and shaking it off again. It wasn't like she had been kicked, mainly just rolled out of the way, but that was a dramatic little puppy for you, she suspected. Jack chuckled a little and gave her a treat, "Good move." Repetition was key to everything training, she knew, and the woman hoped that this would go well for the Houluh puppy no matter what. All she knew was, she really wanted to get this done so she could get her grown and bred at some point, though she didn't know when. Already she had her eyes on another pup to breed her to, and the owner of the other Houluh had expressed interest as well.

Ah yes, Moonbeam's feelings would be hurt soon, she figured with a smile and shook her head a little as she thought about it. Well, this would have to be learned no matter what, and she knew it was a matter of time when something was going to happen. Moving her gently out of the way again as she walked toward her, Jack said again, "Move, Moonbeam." The Houluh wasn't sure what was going on but scrambled out of the way after a moment when she rolled over and all that. Smiling, the woman nodded and slipped her a treat, hoping she was getting the best out of her at this point, and she hoped that nothing was going to get in their way when it came to training. Jack just knew that everything would be fine, that everything would work out, but then why... why was she so lonely right now?

Move - 3
Jack had no idea what else to do, she had a list of things to train to the young Houluh, but there wasn't anything they could really do at the moment that would set things right. She sighed and gently moved the Houluh out of the way as she said, "Move, Moonbeam." The Houluh, however, scrambled out of the way at the last second and wondered what was going on, if this was right or not. It was certainly preferable to being nudged out of the way by the woman, she had to give it that. Jack patted her on the head and gave her a big treat, wondering what they were going to tackle next after this trick. It was hard to decide, of course, but for now she hoped that everything would be fine. It didn't really matter what was going to happen now, did it even? It was hard to tell.

Move - 4
It was alright, she was learning pretty quickly Jack knew, and she smiled at the Houluh. Everything would turn out well enough for now, she thought, and the woman went to move the puppy out of the way again, "Move, Moonbeam!" The Houluh was a step ahead of her, however, and moved out of the way as she walked toward her. Things were going just fine at the moment, but Jack still felt pretty lonely when it was all said and done. Sighing, she looked up at the sky and wondered if that would ever change, but she had almost given up hope of it and all that. It didn't really matter in the long run though, she was fine to be by herself for now, but she wished there was something she could do about things. Giving a shrug, she ended up giving the Houluh a little treat, smaller than the others, as was customary.

Move - 5
"Move, Moonbeam!" Jack said, moving toward the Houluh again, but this time the puppy moved out of the way before the woman could even get to her, and she stood there, wagging her tail a little at the praise of the woman, who kneeled down and started to rub her ears a little. "Very good girl," she told her with a smile on her face and then rubbed her back one last time. Geez she was getting big, that was an issue, or at least it would if they got quite large, but the species really wasn't all that big, surprising, then, that she was so intent on them. Usually she went for the big and scary, but for now? Well... she didn't know what to do for her. Oh well, the woman thought with a smile, at least she had her animals to look forward to no matter what, and she knew there was always more to do.

[Heel - 1]
This next one was close enough to learning to follow on command that she thought they would get it a little confused, but for now she figured it was best to start training the now bigger Houluh how to heel on command. Jack snapped her fingers and pointed next to her, pulling the leash she had connected to the Houluh's collar next to her as well, "Heel, Moonbeam." They started walking, though the pup fought against the leash for a little bit. The woman fed her a treat every now and then as they walked side by side until they stopped for a bit to give her a little break. Moonbeam wasn't used to the leash, and she hoped that everything would go well, but for not it wasn't all that mattered, she figured. Nothing was going to go wrong with this training, it rarely did anyway, but what could she really do at the moment?

Moonbeam tugged again at the leash and pouted, but started walking next to the woman when the treat was offered, the leash was held a certain way, and the woman said, "Heel, Moonbeam." The Houluh trotted at her side as they walked around in circles around her area, and the woman smiled a little as she thought of it for the moment. She was doing rather well with this training, and she could wait to see what she would be like when things were done. Already she knew six different commands, which was definitely a start, but she needed to learn fifteen it would seem, at least from what she was training her at the moment. Giving a little frown, the woman shrugged a bit and fed the pup another treat before they stopped walking. Soon enough they would have to try without the leash, but that could wait for now, she supposed.

With everything coming together so well, she hoped that things would continue for now. Smiling, she pulled on the leash again, "Heel, Moonbeam!" The pup was pulled next to her as she lavished her with treats while they walked side by side until the woman stopped them again for another little break. She knew it was rough learning one thing for a long period of time, she knew too much, some might say, but that didn't matter right now. Sighing a little, she hoped that everything would work for her in the long run, she was tired of being lonely, which was definitely an issue. Oh well, at least she had her animals, she had to give herself that much, right? Jack chuckled to herself and patted the pup on her head before standing up straight and popping her back and neck. Things were stressful right now, and she needed some way to rid herself of it.

Well, everything was going fine, and so Jack unclipped the leash from the Houluh's collar and then dropped a treat into the palm of her hand, "Heel, Moonbeam!" She started walking, and the Houluh pup trotted up next to her and ate as she went, though only getting a single treat this time. Still, she kept to her side, trotting along as they walked around in circles in the training area. She was pleased with how things were going, but knew she needed to get her to do it without a treat still, which was the issue. Unfortunately Moonbeam wasn't all that food motivated, which was a challenge, but she still enjoyed treats from time to time, and this was a special occasion, so she had made sure to get her favorite treats, little Murp flavored ones which made her wiggle in anticipation. That's what had made teaching her no so easy after all.
