In this video, Cooper makes a point about the importance of potty training a puppy. His Dad filmed this video on a Valentine’s Day. He wants Cooper to experience the magic of Valentine’s Day, and puts Cooper on the bed while he spreads rose petals over the bed cover. The video doesn’t say how old Cooper is at this filming, but apparently, he is not completely potty-trained.
So, after all that beautifying, Dad needs to change the bedsheet and re-decorate.
