Sadly, after the dog has gone through all this careful training and protection, just the time when it is growing from a pup into an adult-at about one-and-a-half years old, when it is at its cutest and most affectionate-is precisely when it has to be turned over to a professional trainer and it is gradually withdrawn from the family's warm embrace.
經過這樣的小心呵護和訓練，一旦幼犬長大了，大約一歲半，正是最可愛、最貼心的時候，就要轉移給專業的訓練師，逐漸脫離寄養家庭的懷抱了。
