I did ask everybody to leave separate comments for each extra entry - some bloggers did, some didn't.
Furry Friday Kisses to my Furry Friends!!
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!

Feel free to follow this blog and leave comments on the way!
Questions are welcome, I will try to answer them soon after they are asked - feel free to email me with one, or just leave it in a comment.

I plan to post for extras, but I haven't got there yet. This seem like an awful lot of work for Raiser. It's awfully nice of both of you. Your method of choosing a winner seems fine to me.

SO nice to meet you Rudy. We posted about you on our blog sidebar and signed on as followers too. This is fun!

I think that random number thing is a super idea. Better than having to stick your snooter in a bowl.
