Meet Sandy - HLAA-CS Chapter's newest member! Sandy is our chapter member, Kathy Romberg's, Hearing Ear Dog in training. Watch for Kathy's monthly training updates.
August Update!
An Update on Sandy, the Hearing Dog in Training
by Kathy Romberg
Sandy Notes: What is this? Too big. Ties ok. Bandanas ok. Hats mostly. But this! NO. She put it on me once-weird. Then took it off. I hid under the table. No use the other human came-not as mechanically challenged. They left it on me. Phooey
Kathy Training: The first time through putting the vest on I really goofed it up. Sandy hid. Then I got Willie and he helped. It is simpler than I thought. So, TADA. Sandy in his service dog in training vest. Later this week we go to a restaurant with Dave.
