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.

Helper's Friend Rozlynn
This beautiful Black Lab/Golden cross is Helpers' friend Rozlynn. This pic was taken after play time in my back yard. She is one month older than Helper. Both girls will go on to advance training together next August in Oceanside, California. Rozlynn stayed with us for a few days this month while her PR (Becca) was out of town. CCI encourages us to take each others dogs now and then so they get used to working with various people. When they have positive experiences in different environments it helps to make them confident dogs. Hopefully this also reduces the possibility of any separation anxiety when they go to advance training.
