Meeting New Friends

I’ve been so busy meeting friends of the Israel Guide Dog Center! First I met Ilana Yahav, a talented sand artist from Israel. You can check out her amazing work at sandfantasy.com She gave me a big hug and lots of love – maybe my puppy kisses will inspire her next masterpiece! Then, I met Tal from Israel and took her on a tour of Central Park. We even posed in front of the Alice in Wonderland [...]

My puppy raiser and I led a tour of Central Park for 60 friends at Everwalk Central Park. It was a fantastic day of walking and taking in the sights. Even though the constant chatting got a little dull, I was thrilled to meet new people and enjoy a long walk. It’s important for me to learn how to handle all the distractions outside and how to relax when my partner is busy. ????Peggy [...]
