Josie is unbelievably wonderful----smart, bonded, and sweet. I've been burned out of training the past few
years but she has put the joy back. She's so easy, it's fun. Since she knows all the basic commands, I'm
teaching her tricks as well. I am constantly amazed by her.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!

...Josie is still completely wonderful. When in stores, the busy county fair, Costco, etc she acts like a perfect
service dog. It's really unbelievable for a 5 mos. old puppy. Nothing phases her---she's so stable and good.

Josie and Ryan visited some of the firefighters who saved most of out homes here in San Diego. The fire was
one mile from out neighborhood. We will always be grateful to them.

Josie, my 11 mos. old mini Goldendoodle just passed her AKC CGC with flying colors. What a good girl!

Josie passed all her assistance dog tests yesterday. There are 2 sets of tests. One is given at a minimum of 1
year of age and is called a Facility Dog certification. She breezed through it. She was also tested for and
passed the advanced certification, but she can't get the Full Status Assistance Dog title until she is two.
