Cassius: Cassius is my current black lab puppy from Guide Dogs. He has a great personality and reminds me a lot of Padre. Hopefully he will be just as good and make it through his training to become a working guide.
Landmark: Landmark came to us at 14 months old from another family. He is a definite cuddle-bug and super loving. We are not sure how long he will be with us, but we are glad for the time we have. The picture is Landmark and Cassius together sleeping together as usual.
Update: Landmark is being career changed to work as a therapy dog with individuals that suffer from PTSD.
Donovan: Meet Donovan, our newest Guide Dog puppy. He is a 10 week old male, yellow lab and is full of energy. His shave mark is on his left hind leg which means he is not the largest puppy, but is definitely in the running for the cutest. Donovan will be with un through most of the 2019-2020 school year.
Update: Donovan did not make it through his training and moved to Oregon where he was adopted by a family.
Padre: Meet Padre the newest member of the H@H team. He is a male, black lab puppy and is super cute. He has his shave mark on his right shoulder which means he is the largest male puppy from his litter. Padre, or "Paw-dre" will be with us through the 2018-2019 school year.
Update: Padre became a working guide dog and is currently with his handler in Sacramento going to college.
Kiddo: Kiddo was our last puppy-in-training. He is a black lab and a great dog. He came to work with me most days at both AOC and H@H.
Update: Kiddo was career changed and now lives with my sister-in-law and her family in Georgia.
Decan: Decan was a black lab puppy who attended classes with me at AOC in 2015/2016. He was a great puppy, but did not quite make it as a guide dog. He now lives with a family in the San Francisco Bay area and is doing great.
Update: Decan did not make it through his training and was adopted by a family.
