Happy Birthday to this amazing crime fighting partner. It’s hard to believe a year and a few months have passed since we were paired together. He’s truly one of a kind!

Did you know you can watch puppies on the puppy cam? The Call Sign Litter is sleeping right now, but there are lots of fun objects in their area to explore when they wake up. Watch the puppy cam: https://www.khs.org/what-we-do/assistance-dogs/puppy-cam/

Want to see some puppies in person? Come to our Open House on Saturday, June 28 from 1-4 pm at our training center in Grantville, PA (1078 Gravel Hill Road, Grantville, PA 17028)! You’ll see puppies, dogs in Advanced Training practicing their skills, Ambassador Dog demonstrations, a live puppy class, and more! We hope to see you there!

A few weeks ago, Paqui and I had a nice vacation. In our travels we returned to where it all began for him. We returned to The Hershey Company to see all the people that witnessed him in training. It was amazing to see the reactions of people when they realized it was Paqui. I was amazed at the different stories about him. I was honored to speak and do a demonstration of his new career, at the Hershey’s Service Dog Program update.

We also traveled to Susquehanna Service Dog’s where we toured the facility and did a little presentation and demonstration for the trainers and annual kids camp!

At the end of the day Paqui and I had a nice dinner at Lisa and Dave’s house. It was fun to watch Hotchee, Rupee, and Paqui run around the backyard. It was also a pleasure meeting all the neighbors and doing a little demonstration for them as well.

Paqui and I had a wonderful couple of days in Hershey. We definitely enjoyed our time and are very thankful for the opportunity and support! We definitely look forward to an opportunity to venture back!
