[Name - 5]
Luna was happy they were together again though, she figured with a little woof. She rolled around in the grass until she heard that word again, the word she associated with 'attention', "Luna!" She paused and then rolled onto her feet and looked at the woman, panting a little since she had been rolling rather hard for a little while, and the woman came over to her and patted her on the head for a good job. Luna's eyes closed happily and she barked again before bouncing around a little bit and then wagging her long tail a little bit. Jack laughed at her and knelt on the ground to hug the little Houluh, she was sure things would go well between them, she just needed to work things out and cross out things on the list as they came to them. It would all work out no matter what, she figured with a little smile.

[Come - 1]
Jack smiled and ruffled Luna’s fur on her head a little and then gave her a treat really quickly, she was a pretty cute pup, she had to admit to that much. Grinning, she backed away as the pup stared at her and then called to her, ”Come here Luna!” The Houluh stared at her for a moment and then loped over to her, stumbling over her ears for a moment before she shook it off and ran the last few steps toward her. A laugh escaped her as she watched her antics, and she slipped her a treat and rubbed her back a little when she reached her, ”Good come, Luna.” It was interesting seeing what all would happen, she figured, if the training didn’t take, but already she did this kind of thing for her, she just needed to make sure she would do it on command with anyone at this point. That was the issue, though she didn’t think she would ever get rid of her.

[Come - 2]
Even though she didn’t think she would ever give her away or sell her, there was something about her that she knew needed training. Something was happening, though she didn’t know what, and so training was the next best thing, she figured. Jack rubbed Luna’s back one last time before backing away again and then smiling, ”Come here, Luna!” The Houluh barked and then ran over to her, wiggling a little when she reached her as she got a treat and a few tummy rubs. Jack smiled at her antics, she loved the Houluh quite a bit, and she was lucky she had been the one to get her, she figured. A lot of people had their eye on her when it had been time to pick them out. Somehow she had gotten lucky, and the woman was pleased with her progress, she was a pretty smart little puppy, even though she had her moments.

The hardest part of training would be teaching her no, she figured. Sure, she already knew it with her, but that wasn’t the point. Jack sighed a little and shook her head, she didn’t know what to think at the moment, but she patted Luna on the side one more time before walking away again. Turning, she looked at the Houluh and then patted her leg with a hand, ”Come here, Luna!” The Houluh opened her mouth, tongue lolling about, before hurrying over to the woman. Jack knew things would be easy for awhile before they got harder, she was going to train her a few things she had never trained before, but that was the mark of a good trainer, expanding your horizons and doing new things. She reached down and gave her a treat and another belly rub and looked up into the sky. While she didn’t know the full plan, at least she had something.

There wasn’t much for her to do with training at the moment, even though she had a pretty long list, all things considered. She was planning on training Luna up even more than Kro was, after all! She didn’t know why, but it just made sense to her at the moment to train her, though she wished she knew why at this point. Jack walked away from the Houluh again and then called to her, ”Luna, come!” Luna bounded over to her and barked, jumping up to put her front paws on the woman’s legs, making her chuckle a little. She would need to be trained out of that, she figured, but that could happen later. Right now she was still a puppy and needed to be exercised from time to time, she thought. Of course that didn’t mean she would put up with much at the moment, she needed to get her trained after all. Jack rubbed Luna’s ears and smiled, she was doing great so far, she just needed to make sure she had it down.

”Come here Luna!” she called to the Houluh after walking away again, and the little pup ran after her quickly, looking rather pleased with herself when it was all said and done. She woofed at the woman a little and wiggled up against her legs as the woman patted her on the side for a job well done, and Jack grinned a little bit at that as well. While she wasn’t sure what all she was going to do with the Houluh, it didn’t mean she couldn’t have her trained up at this point, right? Jack shook her head, it wouldn’t matter right now, and that was the issue she supposed. There had to be an end goal, she just didn’t know what it was going to be at this point. Jack shrugged a little as she continued to pat Luna on the side, as long as she had something, everything else would fall into place.

[Stay – 1]
Teaching an animal to stay was a little harder than teaching them to come when called. They naturally wanted to follow a person they were a little bonded to, but staying away from them, now that was more difficult. Still, Jack figured they could get it done no matter what, and so she pointed at the spot Luna was standing and told her, ”Luna, stay.” The Houluh stared as she started to back away and followed her a little, making the woman frown, ”Stay, Luna.” Jack started to back away again, and tossed her a treat before she started to follow again, ”Good stay, Luna!” She was pleased a little bit, and figured this would be the best way to do things for now and all that. Luna was a little confused about things as she ate her kibble piece, she got a treat for staying in place like that? Or was it because she hadn’t moved yet? Either way, it seemed odd to her, and she didn’t know if she liked it.

Teaching stay was more or less difficult when facing a puppy who wanted nothing but to be by her side, she figured. Jack sighed a little and looked at Luna again, sternly, ”Stay Luna.” She started to back away and Luna raced after her. The woman frowned and shook her head, ”Stay, Luna!” The pup stared at her as she backed away, but the tone of her voice rooted her to the spot, and then she got a piece of kibble as a treat. Maybe it was time to move her to meat treats, but that would be a little later, when they got to the harder things she figured. Jack wasn’t sure what to do with her, but still she praised her, ”Good stay, Luna!” It was hard enough trying to figure this out on her own, sure she had trained this to other animals before, but none were as… enthusiastic, she supposed was the word, as Luna was. Not that it was a bad thing, but still.

At least she was getting trained, she figured, she wouldn’t stay a rude pup forever now. Jack pushed her hair back and pointed at the Houluh, ”Stay, Luna.” The woman stared at her for a moment and then started to walk backwards, nodding when Luna took a step or two forward before standing still again at the woman’s look. Jack smiled then and tossed her a couple pieces of kibble, ”Good stay, Luna!” The pup wiggled in place and then ran over to her. Well, at least it was a start, she had to be pleased with that much she figured. All things considered, she was doing rather well, she figured, and she wondered what she was going to do about things from now on. What would be next? What order was she going to train in? It was a mystery she wanted to figure out, she thought, and she would figure it out eventually at least.

Everything would go as planned, or at least she hoped that would be the case. Jack pushed her hair back and smiled a little at the Houluh, at least she was learning, that was the main part. Stretching out a little, she gave the command again before walking away once more, ”Luna, stay.” The Houluh whined and took a step forward, but moved her paw back again when the woman looked at her. Jack grinned at her finally and tossed her a couple pieces of kibble, ”Good stay, Luna!” Luna ate them with vigor and sniffed around the woman’s feet a little after she wiggled her way over there. She was a very happy girl, Jack figured, which wasn’t a bad thing at all at this point. She just hoped she could train some of her over excitement out of her a little bit so she could calm down a little. Sure she was just a puppy still, but that wasn’t necessarily the point.

Luna was doing well, but she wasn’t quite there yet. Soon she would be, hopefully after this last time doing it, and that was going to work for the woman. They had to work on ‘no’ next, she figured, just in case she needed it. She just hoped that things would work out between them for whatever was coming, it was exciting thinking things might change after awhile. Jack stretched her shoulders out a bit again and then pointed at the Houluh, ”Stay, Luna.” Luna stood there, whining the whole time but didn’t move. She acted like she was going to, dancing with her paws on the ground, but didn’t run toward the woman, which was the point of it all. ”Very good stay Luna!” the woman said happily, reaching down to tussle her ears a little bit. Luna panted happily as she was paid attention to again. Giving a little chuckle, the woman looked at her list again and sighed a little.

[No – 1]
There was so much for her to do with the little Houluh, she didn’t think that they would ever get through this list, but they would manage eventually, she knew! Jack smiled a little and shook her head, she was overly ambitious sometimes it seemed, especially when it came to training. ”No Luna!” she snapped, smacking the Houluh lightly on the nose when she started to nose the treat pouch on her hip. The Houluh backed up and sneezed a little bit, giving her a hurt look. Jack just looked at her sternly and shook her head, ”No.” Whining, Luna crept forward again, but the woman just looked at her a little and she backed up once more. She usually didn’t disobey, but her stomach was getting the best of her it seemed. Oh well, it was a good training opportunity she figured with a little smile as she rubbed Luna’s ears finally. The Houluh panted happily and looked up at her with adoration. This always sucked.

Jack was a sucker for her animals, but she had to stay strong and keep doing what she needed to do in order to get this done. She sucked it up and bopped Luna on the nose again when she went for the pouch once more, this time with teeth, ”No Luna!” Luna backed up again with a hurt look on her face, sneezing again as she did so. All this was tough on the Houluh, but it was tougher on Jack it seemed. She smiled a little and shook her head, at least she knew to stand firm and all that, it was just harder than it sounded when she got to it. Kneeling down, she rubbed Luna’s chin, eyeing her suspiciously when she looked at the treat pouch again. Luna shook her head a little, ears flapping around a bit, and then barked at her, pulling back a little. She didn’t want to get bopped again, but she wanted the treats! All that training and then nothing? No fair!

[No – 3]
Of course, the Houluh didn’t realize she was being trained, just that she was getting food for doing something well. The concept of training didn’t really get through to her, it seemed. Jack stretched out a little and then bopped Luna on the nose again when she started to nose her way toward the treat pouch again, ”No Luna!” The Houluh pouted and plopped down into a sitting position, staring at the woman and the treats. The woman figured she wouldn’t have to tap her on the nose anymore, at least she hoped she didn’t, but that was alright still if she did, she figured, sometimes it took some animals longer than it took others. It aggravated her a bit whenever they needed more time on the simple things, but that was alright, she could work with that she supposed. Ah well, at least Luna was learning, she had to be happy enough about that at the moment and all that, she figured with a little smile.

[No – 4]
All she had to do was get through this training and then they could work on some things she didn’t often teach. She wanted Luna to be pretty obedient, and training was really the only way to do it she suspected. She couldn’t just hope that she would pick up on things and all that, there had to be formal training in order to make sure everything would stick with the little pup. ”No Luna!” she snapped, but didn’t raise her hand to see what happened. The little Houluh immediately pulled her head back after nosing the treat pouch a little at the words she used, and the woman smiled a little bit. There, she was getting it, now she just needed to leave it alone she figured. But as long as she knew ‘no’ then things would work out just fine she figured. Jack stretched her shoulders out again, something about training tensed her up, maybe it was just starting all over again that did it.
