Kauffman joined my pack with my other two dogs, Wrigley and Fenway, without a hitch. From the minute we re-introduced them all to each other, to the moments as I am writing this email, they have been thick as thieves. Fenway and Kauffman have a very special relationship, built on roughhousing and cuddles. Fenway is a high every dog, she’s has the black coat. She was a little frustrated with Wrigley because, although he does like to play, he would much rather cuddle or chew a toy in peace. Kauffman has been great for Fenway because he is always up to play with her.

Wrigley and Kauffman also have a good bond so far. Even though they look alike, they are much different dogs. They’re both incredibly smart and independent, but Wrigley’s wisdom and patience is beginning to rub off on Kauffman. I’ve had Wrigley for 4 1/2 years and he has gone from an only dog, to being the big brother of two dogs under two years old in a six-month span. He’s been amazing to both Kauffman and Fenway, his temperament helped turned Fenway from an anxious dog to a very calm and loving dog. I feel like he is already started to do the same to Kauffman.

Kauffman has been an incredible pup and I can say that I was able to imprint on him within an hour. He shows me respect, love and a ton of playfulness, which is the exact energy I am giving him in return. He is also super smart! He has learned sit, stay, down, come, shake and has almost mastered play dead. He’s still getting acclimated to sleeping in past 4 am, but we are working on that too.

Thanks again for helping Kauffman get his life started, I will provide further updates anytime you ask!
