carnival post — lessons learned in training.

I’ve never participated in the assistance dog blog carnival until now.
The crew over at
ruled by paws
is running this round, so when they
put out the call for submissions
I thought, why not, let’s try this.
Yager is my second guide, and I got him from
canine vision canada
We graduated on October 10, 2013.
During this round of training, I learned a lot more than with my first dog, Cleveland. The most important lesson I learned was that the team can and will make mistakes. There wasn’t a set up route every day. We were taken out and given routes to do, but things changed constantly, and we had a variety of situations to work through each and every day.
The lesson from this round of training? Trust your dog.
So to everyone, trust your dog.
Thank you for reading, and have a great day.
