Hello Pawsome Hooman,
Sparky here with a new update from headquarters!
The last couple of months have been beautiful here in sunny Florida. Spring is my favorite time of year because all the new bugs come out to play! But take it from me, don’t try to eat ‘em!
I overheard some of the staff and it sounds like they are gearing up for somethin in the Fall called the Mutt Strut to raise awareness on invisible disabilities. Did you know that hoomans who are paired with Guardian Angels Service Dogs have a ZERO suicide rate? That’s A-MAZING! I can hardly wait to git all trained up so I can be a really special dog and help a hooman like that!
I have bin working on getting ready to pass my canine good citizen test I’ll be taking in the future! This test covers my basic obedience skills that I was working on in and my ability to follow through with commands. They make the testing more difficult now that I have been practicing each skill set more routinely. My trainers add a level of difficulty by trying to distract me, but I try hard to maintain my focus. To be a service dog, I know I cannot allow things like other dogs, people, or noises to interrupt my work! Once I’ve mastered all those skills, I’ll spend more time learning very specialized skills to help a hooman. My trainer says I'm super sweet and I love to play!
Oh boy, I gotta run! They are calling me back to train. Again, thank you for your support and for making my journey to become a service dog possible. I just might save someone’s life!
Until we speak again hoomans - smell you later! :)
