Wow, talk about doggy Christmas.
Breck came over today right after lunch. His trainer ( I keep forgetting to ask her permission to use her first name) brought along with her many items donated to Can-do-canines for their dogs. A wire kennel, some other grooming items. A bag of dog food, which we donated back, and from 1 specific donor a bunch of toys.
We met this donor at a meeting of the bear supporters (long story) and she out bid us at a silent auction for the toys. After she bought the toys and much later found out we were bidding for our service dog she saw to it that we got the toys. We are talking about a bunch of toys. Squeaky toys, balls and bones, tug toys, a nice stretchy leash, Nylabones , and more. A cool thing is I can tell him to clean up and he will put the toys away in his toy box.
After getting all the gifts it was time to go to meet "grandma" my mom. Mom lives near us in a building tall enough for elevators. It was a time to work on many skills. hitting door access buttons, riding in new cars, meeting new people and getting on the elevator. Breck met each challenge like a pro. What a dog. Btw he and "grandma" hit it off right away.
We just keep getting closer with every meeting.
