Leone is my first and only Guide dog.  She is a 70 lb. Yellow lab and
4 years old.

the next few days before graduation are going to be so fun for you so
ahng on and njoy the ride.

I was there for Halloween.  I loved the Halloween party.  All the
puppies in training dressed in costumes and had a best costume
contest.
