Our Rotary Club had a guest speaker from Guide Dogs of America this week.
And I got to meet "Bruce" - a one year old yellow lab who is a puppy in training.
Bruce had on his working jacket - and they request that you not approach Bruce while he is working.
However, once that jacket is removed - Bruce is available for treats and petting.
I was all over that pup - Bruce is a leaner..........you should have seen my black pants suit! I was covered with his glorious fur.
Bruce will continue as a puppy in training for another 8 months and then he will go into a separate 4 to 6 month program to be trained to be a guide dog for the blind.
It is a wonderful program.
