Hi Shelley. So glad your training was a success, and that you are now safe home with your new goldy. My best wishes to you both on your journey. Its gratifying to know that Juddy has a good place to spend his golden years.

She is 54 lbs, and 22 inches at the shoulder, and about 22 months old. She is a little sweetheart and a beautiful little girl, a light cream gold color, much lighter than my Juds. She is settling into Boston life really well, and her trainer was fantastic, smile. I attended the Oregon campus this time, and really enjoyed it. Judson is doing great at home with my mom and dad and my dad is getting into shape because Judson keeps asking for games of fetch, good dog! Smile. But he is happy, and healthy, and I am happy that he is so much. Guinevere is mastering the T, well and buses, plus streets, monster parking lots, and we took her to the Commons today, and to Cheers. Smile. Which she loved, except for the pigeons,nand the squirrels, I need to work on that, smile. As long as they aren't right in front of her she is pretty good, smile. But I and Gwenna are home, and doing great. Shelley L. Rhodes M.A., VRT, CTVI and Guinevere, Golden lady Guide juddysbuddy@xxxxxxxxxxxx Guide Dogs For the Blind Inc.
