smile A little brag

I sold one of my dogs to Georgia Canine for Independence Guide Dog Association, and he is in training to become an assistance dog for the disabled. So far he has learned to open drawers and turn on and off lights..
you can see him on the "News" page of their site and they named him "Teddy"
Isn't he cute? http://gcidogs.org/news.htm
It is exciting to know that he will make a difference in someones life. I am very proud of him, and can't wait to here more about his progress.

Oh Nancy...Teddy is just SOOO CUTE!!! How exciting it must be for you to follow this little guy, and know that he will change someones life forever! I know a woman that has a service dog. She has M.S., and as it becomes more debilitating....she is learning to do more and more for her. That is just WONDERFUL....and you have every right to be so very proud of him!!

That is so sweet and what a wonderful picture of Teddy...They will be so pleased with him.
Of course, you already knew how smart he was.
You must be so proud and of course you should brag...That's what this site is all about...Sharing our love of goldens and their abilities.
Angel hugs
