Hello, my name is Cracker

[adruml]

Good looking Cracker!

Someone brought their Chocolate Lab puppy to our Labor Day party. That pup was in and out of the pool all day long. My three legged Tripod Bonzo was having a good time pushing her in the pool, she would get out Bonzo would push her back in again. I can't wait until she is full grown and see if Bonzo can get her in the pool then.

My Mom had a phone call from Guide Dogs HQ this morning....and they (and a photographer) are coming to see me in about 4 weeks time!! ooooo i'm famous!!
I've heard "new outfit", "new hairdo" & "war paint" mentioned......I do hope that's NOT FOR ME (yikes)

Cracker xx

What a handsome boy you are Cracker and how fabulous to look forward to your very important job in life when you are fully grown.

Just dropping by to say cheerio to everyone & post my last photo, so you can all see what a seriously handsome chap i've grown into. Here I am waiting for my train in Durham station.....can't wait to get back home for tea!! All this training is hungry work!



My "puppy" days are over and I have moved to the central training unit in Manchester.
Lots to see and do here, but it's bestest behaviour from now on......or I won't get qualified (oh the shame).

It was quite a nice journey, and I slept most of the way, but I still can't understand why my "Mum" was crying as they closed the van doors?

I've got a few more photo's here, along with lots of other buddies

So totally adorable........at any age. No wonder mum shed a few tears as you left the nest!! I'm sure you will make her proud!!

My boy Cracker has qualified!!!!!!!!!!

And is now a fully fledged Guide Dog and will be moving to York and home with his blind handler on Monday

I went to see him yesterday at the Regional Training Centre in (a very wet) Beverley.


One of the mobility instructors took him around town to show me what he could do.......and he was awesome!
I was skulking around in the background so that he didn't see me lol


He's getting quite used to the cameras too

More tears though........the look on his face when I was heading back to the car........omg she's leaving me AGAIN!

A Very Proud Moment.

Congratulations to ALL involved in Cracker's training.

[HerMajesty]

You should be a proud mama!! It has to be both hard and rewarding to have him headed off on his own life of caring for others........HUGS to you both!

Pride and Joy.
