She spotted me across the parking lot next to a PetSmart and an Ulta store where I was headed for mascara. She picked me and I let her! She seemed very smart, with a good temperment and willing to learn and connect with me. Also, her coloring is what I love &#8211; black with copper paws and some copper markings around her face.\u00a0 Her paws also looked like she would not be too large, and she isn&#8217;t ~ 40-45 lbs. We have two other dogs and 3 cats. She gets along with everyone.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Training \/ Sit Means Sit:<\/strong> &#8220;&#8221;We started with puppy classes with Karma Dog Training.\u00a0 We moved to Sit Means Sit because the program offers an opportunity to train Lilith to be off-leash and listen well despite distractions.\u00a0 I think she is smart enough to learn this quickly. As well, because of my schedule is inconsistent, the ability of the instructors to come to me and the group classes being offered many days a week, makes it even feasible to participate.&#8221;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Motto: <\/strong>&#8220;Sweet, smart, with just the right amount of spark.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Client\u2019s Name: Vicki Dog\u2019s Name: \u201cLilith\u201d City: Austin, TX Breed: Heeler\/Aussie Mix Likes: &#8220;Loves water!!
