Dear Zuma,

This is Mrs. Van Egmond’s 3^rd grade class at West Side Christian School in Grand Rapids, MI.  We are following the Iditarod Race and we have some questions for you:

How did you learn how to type?  I learned to type by practice, practice, practice.

How did you meet D-2?  I meet fur friends and human friends where ever I go.  I have many, many friends!

Do you have a new boyfriend?  I keep my paws to the key board and my mind on the race.  I don’t have a boy friend.

Have you talked to any dropped dogs?  I try to howl around with all the dogs that come in from the trial. 

Do other dogs read your letters? Oh, yes.  I hope you read the articles at Zuma’s Paw Prints so you meet my friends.

Do you ever want to race?  Oh, no.  I am a K-9 Reporter.  Not a racing dog.

Do you like reporting about the Iditarod?  I do like reporting on the race.

Thanks for answering our questions!

Thanks for writing.  I hope that you take time to learn more about me by reading the articles at Zuma’s Paw Prints.  We’ve many stories to share with you.  

Sincerely,

The 3^rd graders

Lots of Tail Wags,

Zuma
