Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] New UCLA Grad-Not OT
Ok, you may be wondering how this is GSD related.? Well, today, Charm and I
got recertified for her therapy work.? As some of you may remember, Charm was
the 2004, GSDCA, Hero Dog, Good Will Ambassador for her work at a crisis
response incident.? Charm had to be recertified but I upped the anty as I need
her for my new job.? I'll explain that later.
Anyway, the evaluator is a UCLA professor.? He gave Charm and I a perfect
score and then some.? She got 2 pluses for her past experience.? So, she ended
up with a 4.2 GPA.? How cool is that?? Ok, there is no certificate from UCLA
for this (Not a bad idea tho) but I am allowed to say she is a UCLA Grad.??
Ok, why I need Charm for my new job.? In a few months I will be retiring from
the LAPD after 24 yrs.? I have applied for and am working to be a facilitator
for disabled folks who qualify for assistance dogs.? My job would be to to work
with the new people in getting them aquainted with their new dog, teach them
the commands and get the dog and human to work as a team.? I would also work
with puppy raisers in the training but would not have to take pups on myself,
Whew, don't need any more dogs here, even short term. LOL!??
Ok, so they need tapes of training and my dogs and all sorts of stuff to
accept me.? That is in the works.? But, they were highly impressed with?Charm
and when I asked if she could come with me, they said yes as long as she was
currently certified.? Well, her Cert ran out even tho we still meet with our
regulars.? So, Charm is now official, can fly in the cabin with me and be used
as a Demo dog.? Now, the big hurdle.? They don't use GSD's.? That was my main
motivation for bringing Charm.? These folks need to see for themselves how
awesome this breed is in taking care of their humans.??
Wish us both luck in getting the job and in convincing them how wonderful our
breed can be :-)

P.S.? I have t go to Michigan in the winter.? YUK!!!!!????
