Hello Elizabeth!

I have attached a picture of Jamie and Venus the day after Venus arrived at 8 weeks old and a picture taken today at 4 months old. Venus is such a beautiful puppy! Her rich red and black pigment is absolutely beautiful! She is smart and learns quickly and she has great eye contact! Venus is confident but has a good willingness to please and she responds well to leadership. Venus is happy, energetic and playful – just what Jamie needs! Jamie is a special young man who has amazing strength and Venus is teaching Jamie to access the strength that brought him through cancer, and apply it to other areas of his life. What a blessing! Venus motivates Jamie to live and to live with purpose. Michael and I are so blessed to have the opportunity to teach Jamie how to train Venus. Thank you for your integrity and insight in finding just the right puppy for Jamie!

Sincerely,

Michael and Connie Mandell
