Here's Hank enjoying some Christmas shopping and looking forward to a visit from Santa!
Thanks to his raiser Bernadette for these lovely photos of Hank. He's a real beauty :)
Here's a few photos of our lovely sponsored guide dog Champ at Claremount Beach!
Thanks to his raiser Kathy for these great shots! :-)
Hank and his puppy raiser, Bernadette, are doing really well. He is settling down a lot she said and really concentrating on his training.
Kathy sent on some gorgeous photos of Champ. As you can see he is doing really well and is currenty on his holidays in Wicklow :)
Izzy on a recent trip to Connemara. Training is going really well with Emma and Izzy is proving to be a very confident and outgoing little one.
Thanks to Kathy, Champ's minder for taking these wonderful photos of Champ. He had the company of another puppy, Orbit, in training recently. How cute are they together?!
His training going very well. He is excellent in the house apart from waking up too early! He is walking very well, stops a bit to check things out but quickly continues on. His recall is very good.
He is growing into a fine handsome dog and loves his free runs away from the training.
Check out these recent photos of Hank, our sponsored Guide Dog for the Blind. He is loving life and befriends most animals he meets. His puppy raiser, Bernadette, says he is doing very well, very intelligent, obedient and diligent to work. He's almost 9 months old now and growing fast. He will remain with his puppy raiser, Bernadette, for around another 3 to 4 months depending on scheduling of training at HQ in Cork.
Check out these gorgeous photos of Izzy sent by her raiser Emma at the weekend. Here she is enjoying the beautiful scenery (and company) in Galway and making the trip over to Dursey Island, Cork via the cable car which she took all in her stride!
As you can see, Hank is growing into a handsome young man for sure. He is great with other animals and takes his role at the allotment Bernadette and her husband have very seriously indeed :)
Champ has been busy over the last few months. At the Botanical Gardens in June. Lunch at Skerries Mills in July. Coffee on the pier in Howth in Aug. He's loving life!
We're delighted that Champ, Izzy and Hank are all really going well in their training and likely to make their way to Cork for formal training in late September or early October.
Izzy is in great form and was on a spot of sightseeing locally last weekend in Glendalough.
Emma, her puppy raiser, is delighted with progress to date as their time together shortens.
Champ with his puppy raiser, Kathy and some adorable photos of him with her grandkids.
These are the last few weeks that Kathy and Champ are together as he will head to HQ in Cork soon for formal training.
It must be very difficult to say goodbye to such a gorgeous dog. Well done on raising a fabulous puppy Kathy!
Hank is a hard worker on the farm and likes to hang out with his farm friends!
A lovely shot of him at home having some fun! What a cheeky chap :)
Here's Izzy on a recent trip to Kerry! She loves to travel and explore new places :)
