it's Official!!!!!



Do you all remember this little chap. A little gold fuzz ball that came to our family and we had a year to help him on the way to service dog....










we had some melt downs in the mall... but lots of great fun....



and lots of laughs!!!! and wonderful experiences...




and many memories.....


But today, has to be almost the most special of all. Because the official word has come thru NEADS... our Chester has completed his service dog training... and he has PASSED with flying colors. He is now an "official service dog" and has been matched with a new owner.
He will be working back at NEADS with his new person for two weeks at the end of the month, learning the detail work of his future. I will have the opportunity to see them both the first part of April when the training is done...
Our boy has made it!!!! Chester I am just so proud of you!!!! (and can't wait to see you again!!!!)

Wow talk about being a proud Mama! Kudos Sue! You ROCK! I was just at the gym, saw a guy working out with a helper, next to them both was his service dog. Made me smile.
