From Melissa who has Koli, a female pup from Macho and Kuma, 2013

Hi Elizabeth,

I just wanted to touch base again and let you know how well Koli is doing. She has been a fantastic little puppy so far! She is a very quick learner and is impressing everyone with how much she knows at such a young age. She is working on all her obedience skills like sit, down, stand, heel, watch, and come. She is also learning a number of the first steps in service work like touch, nudge, pivoting, retrieving, tugging, going to her mat, and rising. She is always eager to learn, is very focused and loves to please! She beats up on her older brother, who is a 10 month old lab and very easy going. I anticipate that he will be a little less forgiving as she gets out of the young puppy stage, but we will see. She attended her first puppy kindergarten class, which was a little overwhelming for her at first, but by the end of class nothing could distract her focus from me. She plays with my classmates at school and is definitely a people lover! She loves her ‘drive’ toy and when that comes out as a reward she forsakes food and other toys to come play with it, so that is great! She is very quiet in her kennel and loves to ride in the car. We are so happy with her and cannot wait to watch her grow up. She is a beautiful, loyal little girl already!

Hope everything is well,

Melissa
