Awesome job team! Freddie Elise and her mamma are showing off one of their new Phase Two training skills! This team is constantly working on new skills while also reinforcing the cues she learned in the service dog's Phase One training program! It is a wonderful example of mentally stimulating the dog while also teaching a cue that will assist her mamma! Great job team!! 🎉🏆🎖So very proud of your hard work!!

Today's travel companion to Honolulu. Cindy is wondering why we are up so early!?! She did an awesome job through all the airline check-in processes on this end. A lot of hoops on the landing end still to do, but we got this!

Scott Parker and Steve Dale had me in tears! We know without a doubt how amazing these diabetic alert dogs are, and we know how much they help their families, but to hear it from the families who have the dogs is so heartwarming! Hearing from families about how these amazing dogs have helped them is what keeps us trainers elevated and fuels us. Together with the Ron and Vicki Santo Diabetic Alert Dog Foundation,we are so blessed and honored to be able to play a role in uniting these special dogs with their diabetic handler's!

Have a listen for yourself! You will also learn about a very special event taking place this week that perhaps you can attend and if you can't, to learn how you can be a part of helping others be a recipient of one of these special dogs!
