Yeah. Simply Getting A New Dog Was Too Basic For My Mothers.

So they're now training a service puppy.

The plan is that she'll become a guide dog for the visually impaired. However she may end up being better suited to being a scent dog for law enforcement.

Obviously my Mothers aren't doing any of the specialised training. They're just covering the first year of basic puppy training. With a particular focus on socialisation and exposure to a wide variety of non-dog friendly situations.
