Special Puppies

I’m off to Leader Dogs For The Blind today in Rochester Michigan. I’m going for training to be an IFT (in for training) assessor. If I pass, I will be assessing Future Leader Dogs at around 10 mon. old, in different aspects of their training. Leader Dog will use the information to help in their breeding program, etc. (i.e. “Is the whole litter fearful? Is the whole litter easily distracted?” Then maybe they would not use that breeding of the parents again.) For those of you that don’t know, Leader Dogs For The Blind has their own breeding program to produce puppies with great characteristics for leading a blind person. It’s been gong on for many, many generations already.

I thought you might like to go down memory lane with me. Here’s the puppies I’ve raised so far.

Booker
Yellow Lab, leading a blind person.

Billy
Golden Retriever
Billy was “career changed” and is now our hunting dog.

Brinkley
Golden Retriever, “career changed”.
He his now a pampered pet and the “mascot” at a garden
center near Green Bay. He gets all the pets he can take in.

Blackjack
Black Lab, leading a blind person.

Boone

He is now a great house pet.

Smoke
Golden Retriever/German shepherd .
He is now a working dog leading a blind person.

Beatrix (Trixy)

right now, still finishing up her formal training.

Butsch
German Shepherd
He is 6 1/2 months old now,
I will have him until just after Thanksgiving.
