Last seen on this page in October when just 3 months old, Kodi is now 5 months, growing fast and ready for the next stage of training. She's a beautiful dog and, like most of her breed, very biddable, wanting to learn and to please. But that attitude comes with big paws, much bounce and a hearty appetite, so her lessons this time were about self control, learning to take responsibility for her own actions and giving herself time to think before she acts.

Born in late July so still a baby of just 3 months, but already learning some basics. Mostly at this stage it's about calmness and instilling a few boundaries - two things that don't necessarily come naturally to puppies or to very excited owners!
