Dog Days Academy

It seems as if whenever I walk past Lucy (Sam sister)'s house, there is something going on involving kids or dogs. If you recall it was just such an encounter that led to our purchase of Sam--because I fell in love with Lucy. Today was such a day.

This is London and he is a 14 week old service dog in training. Lucy's owner has hired the trainer of these service dogs to train and board Lucy during the month of July when they go to Nantucket.

Lucy will be enjoying her own summer vacation at Dog Days Academy where she will enjoy swimming, running with the pack and learning obedience. Sounds like a great deal for all involved!



These are some of Lucy's future playmates who are being trained as service dogs. yes, they get swimming lessons! For more info, see. www.caninecompanions.org. The woman who owns Dog Days Academy breeds half goldens, half labs for these companions and here's the best part: those that don't make the cut are available for adoption for a nice donation to the organization.

I don't think London is going to fail, but if he did, I would scoop him up. What a love bug! No word on what they do if your dog fails Dog Days Academy but chances are that you just get him back!!
