Diamonds in the Ruff - Guide Dog Puppies in Training

Fri, Feb 26 A small crowd gathered at the Rancho Cucamonga site waiting for the arrival of the puppy truck to deliver two 50/50 crosses to our leader Eileen and to Mary C. Well, there were 3 labs and 3 fluff balls. Nando and Nalia turned out to be 87.5 % golden! Mary G said farewell to Chamomile who is going up on the breeder eval list.

Last week our FFA pups became "street legal" and can now be taken to one class per day as per School and GDB guidelines. If they did well, ( of course they did) then this week they can go to 2 classes. In the 2 photos below see the how the pups have physically grown over the past 8 weeks. First photo shows pups on the day the raisers received them: back row L to R: Stephen with Zee, Viviana w Frito, Abby w Zedrick . Front row: Sarah w Waldorf, and Emily w Baloo. In the second photo taken Feb 2nd, they are in the same order, only the pups are bigger and heavier.
