Today, I worked with Finley for the morning. In my first class, there was Batman and her dog, Grady. We sit by each other, when we looked behind us in the middle of class, we saw Grady and Finley sleeping nose to nose with each other and it was the cutest thing ever. This reminds me of the picture that I took the other week of Ganther and Sully in our Animal Physiology class, when they were sleeping nose to nose and Sully decided he wanted to try to play on the floor.
WOW. It's less than one week away from the Wild game and we can't be anymore excited. You still have a chance to buy your tickets to support this great cause and come watch the last Wild home game of the year! That's right, you can support a great cause while doing something that you love. Also, we'll have an awesome booth at the game and you can come take photos with some dogs (and people, if you want), but mainly dogs. Plus if you buy tickets through the link or calling Alena, you get some pretty awesome perks for an awesome ticket price! Thanks for supporting us!
Above is a quote that Dianne said during the meeting today when we were working on scent detection on people. Dianne and Maddie might have had scents on them, but we didn't know who or if they did so we just walked past them seeing if our dogs would cue into the scent and Ganther decided that he didn't feel like smelling anything, but instead just wanted to cuddle Dianne.
This week, Linda brought in the 4 new puppies that we got! So we split the group in half, so half of us worked with the adult dogs on diabetic alert detection while the other half went and learned about puppy socialization, training, and other puppy things with Linda. Batman and I had to leave quickly to talk about the program to a club, so we missed a little bit of puppy time. When we came back the puppies were so tired they were sleeping and they also slept for the next group that came in. When we switched, we worked on diabetic scent detection using games with the dogs and discerning whether or not there's a sample on someone. I worked with Finley during this time because Maddie was running this part of the class. We then worked on discerning of colors with them too, Finley was really good at this! To end off the class, we looked at client samples and things that we have to consider for the dogs and placement.
