Week 3 with my golden puppy and things are finally clicking

I have to share this because the first two weeks with Biscuit were honestly rough. She's 9 weeks old and weeks one and two felt like i was running on empty. She was up at 2am, 4am, sometimes both - crying in the crate and i kept second-guessing everything i was doing. i read every tip, watched every video, and none of it felt like it was working fast enough.

But something shifted this week. She started sleeping until 5:30 consistently, she's mostly asking to go outside before accidents happen, and today she sat on command three times in a row without me having to ask twice. I teared up a little, not gonna lie. The crate training that felt impossible two weeks ago is now just her normal routine. She walks in there herself sometimes.

If you're in week one or two right now and feeling completely overwhelmed - it does get better. The "it just clicks" advice everyone gives is actually true, it just doesn't feel that way when you're running on four hours of sleep. Hang in there.
