W-Litter Hunter x Karma pup goes home to Michaels home in Midland, MI. Keith reported that first day home they worked on: Come, Sit, Down, Back, & Settle.
The second day this is Keith’s email:
She will do nice puppy sits and downs. She and Ilea ( female from Ricco x Allie) are playing good together. She is doing the steps and coming when called when interested in a distraction. House is still dry because she asks to go out. So you trained her all ready for me. She checked out fine at my vet (giving kisses) and is 20.6 pounds on his scale. She got her Kennel cough vaccines today and will repeat the others in about three weeks. I am very pleased with her (and your choice.)
I shared his email because I thought it would help give other new puppy people a little guideline on what to start with for training. They are sponges and ready to learn. Keith is giving us too much credit… we do not house train the puppies before they leave, we set it up so that they learn to be as clean as possible. Keith is simply very good at observing and understanding dog body language.

Keith was so happy! It was so much fun to share the moment
This puppy – was purple-monkey collar – doesn’t know a stranger, she figured this lady needed help tying her shoes:
A-T puppies rock!
Super cute – best wishes with your new pup!
