How long do I have to be an intern dog trainer?

At Proud Dog,

I have worked with dogs of various ages and breeds.

The puppy class I have at Dr. Nosuke's clinic

which targets at puppies and their owners

is acclaimed.

More importantly,

my dog Sanju wouldn't listen to me at all when we met.

We finally came to understand each other through commands.

Now it is my indispensable partner.

Mr. Niwa can consider me

a real dog trainer now.

(DOG SIGNAL)

(The Smiles of Two)

BEGINNER'S CLASS, TWO GROUPS OF NEW STUDENTS There'll be two groups of new students in beginner's class.

11 A.M. TO 12 P.M. What should I teach to make them enjoy it?

Although my title is intern dog trainer,

apart from the puppy class at Dr. Nosuke's clinic,

I have also started to take charge of the beginner's class in the store.

A mysterious brown bun outside the glass door.

How long have you been waiting here, Sanju?

Why don't you sleep in the living room?

We didn't get along at first, but now we're good friends.

Now Sanju loves me so much that

MOANING it sometimes feels a bit overwhelming.

But it's not very honest about its feelings.

Thank you for waiting for me.

You are amazing, Sanju.

A happy life with my dog

has made me deeply realize

DOG TRAINING PROUD DOG the importance of dog training.

Hello everyone.

I am Samura Miyu, I'm in charge of the beginner's class.

This is my partner dog,

the poodle Sanju.

In order to show the new students

how fun dog training can be,

Sanju and I will do a demonstration first.

Sanju.

Come.

Jump.

OK.

Just like that,

we can have a lot of fun interacting with dogs.

Sanju is so cool.

Mr. Miyu is amazing.

It's unbelievable.

How can it understand you just from hand signals?

Is Sanju a genius?

Is it because of its breed?

No, as long as you teach them…

It must be exceptionally gifted.

My dog is the same breed,

but it definitely can't do it.

That's not true, everyone.

When I first met Sanju,

we didn't get along at all.

You must be lying.

No need to be modest.

No, I'm being serious.

It would stand up like a monkey and pull the leash.

It would pee everywhere at home to mark its territory.

It kept barking.

-It would even bite me. -Ow.

It was really exhausting.

We just couldn't get along.

But after I met Mr. Niwa, we worked hard together in training.

-That's right. -Our relationship slowly improved.

Miyu and Sanju really worked hard.

Now we have completed the basic training.

Sanju has become very obedient.

Since we can do it,

your dogs can do it too.

Let's work hard together.

Okay.

Completed the basic training?

Then let's start with eye contact.

Okay.

Let's do it.

Sanju, House.

Sanju, House.

Quickly.

So, let the dog stay on your left side first.

That's right, well done.

You understood it in no time.

Such a good boy.

They should be able to learn it very quickly.

Well done.

Keep at it.

Okay.

Everyone praised us today, Sanju.

Doesn't it feel like a professional dog trainer?

It's really great.

When I saw Mr. Niwa commanded Senior Uruson with just hand signals,

I thought they were so cool.

Were Sanju and I just like that

in the eyes of the students?

Just saying.

Are you listening, Sanju?

Don't do that.

Now, perhaps…

No way.

For the first time,

my snapping worked.

No way.

That's amazing.

Can I really become like Mr. Niwa?

Really?

Hello everyone, I am the dog trainer, Samura Miyu.

-Everything is going well. -Oh my God.

-The future is bright for Sanju and me. -I am the dog trainer, Samura Miyu.

I thought so at the time.

DOG TRAINING PROUD DOG

Mat.

That's right, Kinako.

Here's your reward.

You learn so quickly.

Right? So smart.

But it just can't settle down in the café.

It's okay.

That's exactly why it needs to learn.

As long as it learns to lie down on the mat.

Sanju, come here.

Mat.

Eh?

What's wrong, Sanju?

I said Mat.

Stand up, come quickly.

Alright, hurry up.

Look, just like this.

I see.

Once it becomes a habit,

it will know to lie down when it gets on the mat.

This command is very useful in the café.

Sora, come have a try too.

Sanju, go back to the house.

Sanju?

Hey, what's with you today?

You should go back to the doghouse after work.

Sanju, be good.

House, quickly.

What's gotten into you today?

The students are all watching.

I have to make it obey.

House!

You can do that, can't you?

It's no use glaring at me.

No way.

Why are you marking now?

This is ridiculous.

So Sanju also has bad times.

It's alright, Mr. Miyu.

It's actually relaxed me.

I don't feel relaxed at all.

You can do it, so just obey.

Geez.

How can it be?

What have you done, Sanju?

Hey, you.

Haven't I taught you how to use the toilet?

If you angrily scold them for their physiological reactions,

the dogs might get so scared that they never do that again.

That's right, I shouldn't scold it.

Don't get emotional.

Just quietly clean it up.

I need to stay calm.

Stay calm.

Stop it, Sanju.

I'm angry.

Oh no, I can't scold it.

I…

I'm going to wash the rag.

Later on,

Sanju stopped listening to me.

It started marking in the house.

It refused to eat.

I made that specially.

Misbehaving.

My curtain!

Barking for no reason.

And in the end…

Stop barking, stop.

Be obedient.

Sanju.

Just like when we first met,

it turned back into a wild monkey.

Since we can do it,

your dogs can do it too.

What should I do?

I'm too ashamed to tell them

I can't do anything anymore.

DOG TRAINING PROUD DOG

Mr. Miyu…

Is Sanju feeling unwell?

It hasn't been around lately.

We are very worried.

No, it's doing well.

There have been more students recently,

Sanju is a bit overworked.

So I let it rest for a while.

So that's how it is, great.

Mr. Miyu is so considerate.

Hey.

Is Sanju really okay?

It's really fine.

Why are you also asking?

You had scheduled a grooming for it today.

I've been waiting.

I forgot.

Sorry, I'm really sorry.

It's okay, we can just reschedule.

Okay, I'll go check the schedule

and contact you immediately after.

I'm really sorry.

Wait…

Something definitely happened.

I can't tell them.

I absolutely can't.

Why did this happen?

Things were going so well before.

It could deftly obey my commands,

it was a model for everyone,

and was even praised as a genius dog.

And it liked me very much,

didn't it?

MOM

Miyu.

What is it?

Saki got his driver's license.

He says he wants to get a car.

I see.

I wanted to help him out with some money.

But I don't have any.

So, as his brother,

can you pay half of it for him?

Saki just started working, he can't earn much in the first year.

If you can pay half for him,

he can cover the rest with a loan.

Miyu, are you listening?

Send money.

Got it.

I don't have much savings,

but I'll send it.

Goodbye.

NIWA SHINICHIRO If Sanju is fine,

bring it over tomorrow.

I'll have to try not to be discovered.

DOG TRAINING PROUD DOG

Hello everyone.

Let's start with practicing lying down on the mat.

Sanju hasn't come to work for a long time.

Let's demonstrate it first.

Sanju, welcome back.

They are looking forward to it.

It must go well.

Sanju, Mat.

It's looking at me.

Very good, just lie down.

Wait, what are you doing?

The mat is here.

You can do that, can't you?

Mat!

-Not good, they'll get suspicious. -What's wrong with it?

Don't keep sniffing around.

Just do it once, and you can go back to the house.

Just be an obedient dog now.

Hey.

I messed up.

I can't hide it anymore.

I asked the students to go back.

I'm sorry.

Is this why

you haven't brought it here lately?

I used to get along well with Sanju.

It listened to me.

It performed well as a partner.

Everyone started to acknowledge me as a dog trainer.

But it suddenly started to misbehave.

Don't you know why?

No.

You really don't?

No.

I wish you could tell me.

We were doing so well.

I understand now.

I'll take care of Sanju for now.

Why bring that up all of a sudden?

Don't you understand?

If you two continue to stay together,

it will only make it worse.

No.

I will fix it myself.

After all, I am a dog trainer.

I can discipline my own dog.

Who allowed you to remove the word 'intern'?

I will take over your students.

I will also ask Nosuke to suspend the puppy classes.

Wait, I don't understand.

Don't come over until you understand.

What does that mean?

I can't figure it out.

Although I can't understand,

it seems like I've lost both my job and Sanju.

What did I do wrong?

Brother.

Saki.

Sorry to disturb you.

I got my car yesterday, and I drove here to show you.

Why bother coming all this way?

It was my first time driving on the highway.

It was terrifying.

You are doing well, brother,

living in such a fancy apartment in the city.

With your girlfriend, right?

We broke up a long time ago.

Really?

Then can I stay here?

I don't have to work tomorrow.

This is a ghost house. Don't you mind?

Eh?

A ghost house.

That's why the rent is so cheap.

I changed jobs and earn only a half, but I can still afford the rent.

INTERN DOG TRAINER, SAMURA MIYU

I am a dog trainer now.

Sorry, I think I'd better go back.

Really?

That's a pity, you must come again.

Drive carefully.

Brother.

Mom is obsessed with strange shopping websites again.

She keeps spending money on serums and health supplements.

You'd better talk to her about it.

Goodbye, see you next time.

Next…

You talk to her yourself.

Why do you ask me, who left home a long time ago?

Miyu is the big brother.

You can do that, can't you?

Pick up Saki from kindergarten after school.

Brother.

You can do that, can't you?

I'm on the night shift today.

Can you make dinner?

I want to do it too.

No, it's dangerous.

You can do that, can't you?

After you receive your salary,

send money home every month, okay?

You can do that, can't you?

You can do that, can't you?

What did I do to Sanju?

The expenses this month are high.

The salary from my part-time job might not be enough.

Can you send more money?

You can do that, can't you?

My mother has always liked wasting money.

Ever since I can remember,

Dad gave up on trying to change her

and stopped caring at all.

Miyu, take care of Mom.

He would pat my head and say this.

Taking care of my brother who is five years younger was my job.

Miyu is the older brother.

You can do that, can't you?

My little brother is very cute.

-I don't hate taking care of him -Amazing!

But…

You can do that, can't you?

It's taken for granted that I would do it.

I hate being treated this way.

If you two continue to stay together, it will only make it worse.

You're right, Mr. Niwa.

I should have let go earlier.

I'M A DOG TRAINER NOW. Before I did the same thing

I CAN'T SEND MONEY HOME ANYMORE, SORRY. without even realizing it.

Sanju.

Sanju.
