6 month old puppy behavior shows their growing personality

At 6-7 months, your puppy may be physically more like an adult dog, but they’re still growing in all sorts of ways. They’re exploring the world, themselves, and your boundaries, so it’s a great time to add more training. Their appetite is growing just like they are, and their grown-up personality starts to shine through.
