Many of you know that I am training my baby pup for a higher purpose. We have been working hard since she was only 6 weeks old. She has 3 children that she works with over at the therapy office. One boy doesn’t talk at all and when he is touching her he is willing to try. Not only that, he grunts things that you could swear were words. Along with that we have been working on training her to be a companion dog for me. Helping me with hearing the things that I cannot hear. She is amazing, Smart and I am so lucky that we have been blessed with her.

Now here is the neat thing. She hasn’t earned her vest, so to speak, But she is working on all her manners so that when we get to the CGC classes she will pass with flying colors. I am really excited for her. Okay really excited for me.

 

Than we will be working on the companion part for me. It will be really nice to have someone that will be able to help when someone is calling me. Right now I rely on my husband or my children to help with that. So I am looking forward to having her trained. No longer will the rule be… I am hearing impaired if I don’t answer the door come on in and yell…..Safety will go up for my children and I.

 

I am eager to get this wonderful new product. It is the baby and invention of a brilliant woman in Cleavland, Ohio. (A city away from were I was born.) this is going to cut down on the amount of junk that always seems to be in my hands. =)) that will make for a happy me. So when my Har-Vest gets here next week… you will all get pictures and a full review of what I think. Of course it is going to be big. So we will have to slowly work with her on it. For now she is wearing a fleece sweater that is PINK that says casual canine. That one works for her to know that she is at work during training. I am so excited about that I can’t begin to tell you how wonderful it will be.

 

If you know of other dogs out there that are used for a higher purpose and need to be fitted with something so wonderful like a Har-Vest and would like to pass the link on… please do. It is hard to start something like this off…. the idea was born 4 years ago and she is working her tail off to get the name out there. If you are able to donate one of these wonderful vests to a working dog, please do. This makes will make life easier for the handlers.
