Today was so much fun! I had several friends from Canine Companions for Independence (CCI) come on a tour of Becoming Independent (BI). I got to show them what I do here and how important my job as a facility dog is. My handler, Peggy, explained that if one of the people we serve is having a bad day, I can make them feel so much better. I have the ability lift their mood and brighten up their day. I may be backtracking a bit, but I like this picture of me "on the job" from January 2010:
I was very excited to meet some new friends today, including Rosebud and Journey. At under a year old, they are still pups and learning the ropes. Soon they will be ready to leave their puppy raisers. I think I set a good example for these two youngsters. One of my good friends, Gambia, was on the tour too. Gambia also comes to BI everyday. Sometimes we get our nails done together.
