My dear little puppy, Noelle, rang her bell by the door to let me know that she had to go outside. I was so excited and surprised that I squealed and scared her half to death. She took off like she did something horrible! Now I don't know if she'll ever do it again.
I picked her up right away and praised and kissed her but I feel so terrible. We still ring it together when we go out and she doesn't seem afraid of it, I hope I didn't traumatize her.
