For those of you who are just checking out this blog WELCOME!
This blog follows the life of a guide dog in training.
I raise guide dogs for the blind out of Southeastern Guide Dogs in Palmetto FL (http://www.guidedogs.org/).
The past dogs I've raised are: Brax, Frankie, Toby & Rudy (click the links under the header picture to read more about each one).
I'm currently raising my 5th guide dog puppy "Brandon"
(male yellow Lab - D.O.B. 9-4-11), who I recived on October 30th 2011.
I will keep Brandon for about 12-16 months, then he'll head
IFT (In For Training) back to the guide dog school for 6-8 months of training (plus evaulations) with "professinal" trainers and hopefully will then graduate with a blind person. *Please note though, that only 1 out of every 12 dogs will get "Carrer Changed" due to medical/training issues* I do currently have a guide dog puppy down at the guide dog school (Rudy) who is in "phase 3" (last phase of training) and will hopefully get placed with a blind person soon.
Please feel free to follow -
"Brandon's Life... As a Guide Dog In Training"
Enjoy!

Did I see a special cameo by Liberty in that movie? I think Fresca says "put some carpets on these floors." Hehehe.
I hope you will send postcards from college.

I am very excited that Fresca shall pick up the harness when you go off to college! The blog name is fantastic.
Also, for a moment there in the first video I thought wittle Fresca was thinking you were her mommy and she was looking for the milk bar so she could nurse!

Fresca sure is cute! I think it would be most interesting to hear what she has to say after you go to college. You are also one very tolerant fellow!

You're SO patient with Fresca, Toby! I love those pictures of her climbing all over you. She sure is a cutie.
Maybe "Fresca's Life: Growing up as a Goat"?
I bet she will make a good blogger, though you should show her the ropes first, of course!
Woooos! She is so cute, I want a goat friend too, maybe I can trade in Scampi fur a goat!

you are awesome to let her climb and lay on you!
That is THE cutest thing I have ever seen. What an adorable friendship.
That is too adorable for woofs, Toby. It'll be interesting to read what Fresca has to say, but for a while I think the main thing she'll be saying is that she misses you.
wags, Lola
That Fresca is a real cutie petutie
An hour down-stay and the patience to have a baby goat crawl all over you? Toby, you are our inspiration!!!
