Hello, everybody! This has been a fun month for me. We recently celebrated Thanksgiving. I loved all of the extra treats I got that day. I've been working on improving the following skills: sit, stay, down, come, go in, here, jump on/off, and calm leash walking. I've been making more progress and only using verbal commands. I still watch out for my dad's body language though.

My new favorite thing is working on food puzzles! If there is food, it's for me! My handlers Johnny and Jimmy showed me how awesome puzzles are and I'm so glad they did. I'm looking forward to serving my future recipient. Well, take care for now!

Hi guys! Zeus here again! Well, this month has been a fun month! I picked up these new skill things called Touch and walk with me. These guys are giving me plenty of treats! So I love it! I have been spending a lot of quality time with both of my dad’s Kevin and Damian. And I have gotten better at not eating off the floor, not counter surfing, and staying out of trash cans! Even though they smell …SOOOOOOooooooooo Goooooooooddd….. Next month I am looking forward to learning new skills and spending time with my new Mommy. I hope you check out my next month’s update. Until then, take care.

Hello to all my fans out there! Just a reminder in case you forgot, I’m 2 years old now. It was my birthday on March 24th and if you absentmindedly missed my big day, that’s okay. I’m a very forgiving dog. All belated gifts of toys and yummy treats are still currently being accepted by my entourage. Sorry, I mean my handlers :)

I would like to welcome my new puppy raiser, nurse Karen Becker, to our team. I’m looking forward to forming an incredible bond with her and her family as we explore the world outside of prison together. So many new places to go, see, sniff, and the opportunities for new smells in the air are endless. Hopefully, there is not a lot of food on the ground out there like there is here at the prison because I’m still working on my ICK. I’m an open and honest dog who will be the first to share what I need help with. You just have to listen to my voice. I love you Robert you're my best friend.

Hi everyone! It’s me Zeus puppy! I want to give a big shout-out to all the other bond-based-choice-taught dogs out there and hope that everyone from our NLK9s family is healthy and safe from the Corona Virus. Just Recently our team here at south got sick from COVID 19 so I got to take care of my best friend Rob while he didn’t feel too good. I hang out with him right by his side the whole time we were in something they call a Quarantine-although to me it just looked like another building. Rob said that I was a hero to all the sick inmates there because we would walk around the dayroom and say hi and bring them love. Rob shared with me that when I graduate it's going to be my life work to shammy love with same and help them each and every day to feel better. Spreading my love is something I do best, just ask Rob he wouldn’t be the man he is today without my love.

Love,
Zeus
