var myObj = {
  gift: "pony",
  pet: "kitten",
  bed: "sleigh"
};

function checkObj(checkProp) {
  // Your Code Here

  return "Change Me!";
}

You are supposed to use the .hasOwnProperty() to check if has object has a property.
The .hasOwnProperty() returns true if a property is found and false if a property is not found. So think about this logic and make the function return the property’s value when its found or “Not Found” when its not found.
