Beginner tips for training your puppy

Pet expert and puppy trainer Andrea Arden of New York City demonstrates best training practices for new pups.

A boy from Louisiana wants everyone to know that his former foster dog, Maggie, from the North Shore Animal League America, is very, very special. 

So special, in fact, that Roman Duncan, 7, wrote a series of letters to Maggie’s "new famuley" [sic] — the one that would eventually adopt the pup Roman and his parents were fostering.

In one of the adorable notes obtained by Fox News Digital, Roman wrote, "Maggie is so cute. Maggie loves to play fech [sic] … Maggie is the best dog ever." 

Roman concluded, "We love Maggie," and shared his hopes that a new owner would love her, too.

Yohannan added that there are many animals in shelters across the U.S. that are in need of loving homes.  

"People should consult their local rescue organization and consider adopting," she said. "If someone is not ready to adopt, they can foster and/or volunteer. North Shore Animal League America relies on the support of donors all across the country to continue our lifesaving work."
