It's interesting the differences with the same organization. At NWR when we have a pup graduate we have lunch with the graduate and then we go over to the graduation site and get our puppy. We don't see them before we meet the graduate, but we get a picture of the whole graduating class and one of our puppy with their partner before we meet their partner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8403409143195575309.post-37172431317669948432012-02-18T12:50:50.275-05:002012-02-18T12:50:50.275-05:00Elijah

I actually wrote a short booklet and included pics and stories and how I'd make a difference. I did 4 months of research before saying anything to my parents or hinting anything and then just got together with them and asked. I said that I wanted to change someone's life and I'd do whatever it took to puppy raise. Being the wonderful parents that they are they said, "yes". Something about the selflessness of the matter seems to work! <br /><br />I'm so happy that I can inspire other people not, since I was inspired so much by reading PR blogs. <br /><br />I hope you are able to raise soon! <br /><br />~Elijah & Hobart II<br />(P.S. tell me if you get a blog)Elijah https://www.blogger.com/profile/17140553882348914219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8403409143195575309.post-3910572843918211082012-02-17T23:15:11.076-05:002012-02-17T23:15:11.076-05:00Thanks for the comment!

Seeing someone my age raising a puppy really showed me that anything can be possible with hard work and determination. Because of you, I want to become a puppy raiser. <br /> The one thing I need your help with is discussing the idea with my parents. I have an essay written about the organization, (KSDS), what my life will look like as a raiser, and how these dogs become miracles, but I would like to find out all of the details of when you first introduced puppy raising to your parents, so I can comprise the most successful way to discuss this with my parents.<br />Thank you so much, for being my inspiration,<br />-A teenage girl from UtahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8403409143195575309.post-41645643046544442932012-02-17T22:38:55.214-05:002012-02-17T22:38:55.214-05:00Hi Elijah! you don't know me, but I have been ...Hi Elijah! you don't know me, but I have been following you blog for about 6 months now, and just picked up my first CCI puppy to raise on Wednesday.
