I am a first time volunteer Puppy Raiser for Canine Companions for Independence (CCI). This wonderful organization has been providing Service Dogs, Facility Dogs, Hearing Dogs and Skilled Companions to people in need since 1975. My job for the next 18 months is to socialize, train and prepare the puppy (Helper II) in my care to successfully enter advance training in Oceanside California. I have started this blog to document our journey together.

Backyard Playtime
The weather has been great this spring and we spend 2-3 hours outside each day. Here Helper is taking a break on the patio from a game of fetch. I can not believe how quickly she is growing. She loves to play and runs very fast. There is no way I could catch her if she got away. That makes her training very important! Twice a month we go to Puppy Class to learn and practice new skills.
