Mya and Riley - Elise/Silas 2014 and Elise/Roman 2014

(Mya - 2014 Fall Elise/Silas)
(Riley - 2014 Spring Elise/Roman)

Mya has been an absolute joy to have in our family. She responded to her name within 3 days. By 1 week we were confident she knew her name. With Riley it took a bit longer, so it was a joy to see her respond so fast. In the beginning, Mya was a little timid since Riley was a bit rough, but she LOVED having Riley to play with and now plays with Riley without running for cover. She's 4 months now and weighing 35ish lbs. Riley is almost 1 year old, on March 6th, and is weighing in at a solid 85 lbs.
 
Like you all said in Mya's (Miss Teals) write up she ALWAYS comes when called, can sit, drop, and stay already. She listens very well, unless she's distracted with Riley. She loves meal time! Personally, I can't tell you how much I love that she's a cuddler. That's what Bailey, our first dog, would do ALL THE TIME! We didn't know how much we missed it until we got Mya. She struggles sometimes with walking on one side, but of course, we work on that when walking. I do have to remember that she's only 4 months old sometimes.
 
I know Rhonda will love hearing this: since bringing Mya home Riley's attitude and personality has changed for the better. She disliked snuggling, being pet (unless it was on her time), or wanting to always be outside before Mya. Now, she's all about snuggling with all of us, making sure she gets some belly rubbing, and personal time with her. She is still very independent, but has developed into such a lover now.
 
I told my parents that the training put into both of these dogs AMAZES me! The imprinting trainig shown in both makes me not want to purchase another dog from any place but Snitker Goldens. You're family has won us over!
