She's discovering her voice

Teddy went through a phase where he wouldn't shut up for hours just amazed at his own bark! Now he only whines for attention or barks when I say "get him" as he guards the doors of the house and little things like tree shaking or car driving startles him! Mainly he lift my hand by digging under and putting whatever part of his body under it (mainly his belly) or he will nip at my feet to tell me we are going somewhere such as outside or to play lol
