Yep, the stripe down my nose is pretty darn unusual for a Guide Dog. So unusual I don't believe they have seen another pup with a stripe down the nose like I have. Not to boast, or float my boat, or toot my own horn but...BEEP BEEP!! I had folks comin' at me from all angles at Fun Day wantin' to take a picture of this beautiful mug!! Fun Day is an event Guide Dogs for the Blind holds to thank the volunteers for the time and effort they give to the organization. The Girl and I were asked to be in a photo with a few other raisers, a couple Guide Dog for the Blind employees and a representative from Umpqua Bank.
These are the goofballs I love!
Out at Fun day the family got to walk through the vet clinic. Everyone walked through the doors in front of The Mom and I. When The Mom and I stepped in, we were halted, stopped! Yet again, this beautiful face was once again recognized. You see I had this um, well this uh, um...let's just say I had a "procedure" done not so long ago. So once we got done with all the "schmoozing" I walked into the clinic. There I ran into this dumb little dog, who wouldn't move, definitely not as cute as me, and The Mom made me stand next to it until I relaxed. So I relaxed. Then we moved on to this Giant, obviously stuffed animal, and The Mom made me lay next to it. Good Grief with the pictures.
Well wouldn't you know it! It's my day, I'm makin' my rounds, waggin' my tail, lookin' cute, behaving awesome, drawin' crowds and then I sniff it and soon after spot it - smoke! Dag-gum-it!
The Grandma went and got our CFR to get her involved. Hearing all of them talk, it sounds like it was a perfect opportunity for them to work together to see how to work me through the fear. They were very happy with the progress I made!!
A couple days earlier we celebrated The Boys Birthday! We all got together and went to breakfast at a place called the Waffle Window! The Boy's Aunts family also brought their new addition, Rosie. Don't tell her I said this but she's a Mutt! She's nice though!
I also went to pizza, look how cute The Girl and I are!
Long story short, I feel like I have the paparazzi following me around all the time. It's always - Truckee, Truckee!! TRUCKEE!! Sometimes they even start making animal noises!! I'm like what-the-wha!?! Did she just quack like a duck?
Until next time, wish me luck!
Truckee (7.5 months)
