Shabir Mahommed's daughter, Phindile Fatima, told him about the dog training which takes place on Friday afternoons at her school Zamthule. He was intrigued and decided to check it out with his beloved boy, Brownie. Brownie is very playful, loves jumping and according to Shabir, is very clever. They have learnt so many new words and commands. Brownie has had all his inoculations and put on weight since they have been attending class. Brownie is very good at protecting the Mohammed family, so Shabir makes sure he gets lots of his favourite food – putu and maas.
