My puppy raiser and I started making this movie before I headed off to college. So, if you're seeing it on my blog now it means that my puppy raiser finally got around to putting the finishing touches on it!
A special shout out to Jack Johnson, who wrote the cool song, Better Together, which I "borrowed" for use in my movie. Errrrr... hope he doesn't mind (if he does, it was my puppy raiser's idea!). My puppy raiser and I used to dance to this song all the time (we danced really well together cause we both have no rhythm). Anyways, we thought this particular song would be the perfect song for my movie.
Woof from college!

THE BLOG WRITERS
CARLO
Hi! My name is Carlo and this is my blog! I was an assistance dog in training with the organization, Canine Companions for Independence. I lived with my puppy raiser for about a year and a half and then went to college (aka "Advanced Training"). While in college, I decided that I didn't really wanna be an assistance dog... so I came home! I'm now what is called a Change of Career (COC) dog. And, boy do I have a busy career! Not only am I best friends with my pal (my human... who was my puppy raiser!), but I also do animal-facilitated therapy work! My pal and I are a registered pet partner team through the Delta Society and we are a registered Reading Education Assistance Dog (R.E.A.D) Program team.
LUCKY
My name is Lucky and I rule the roost. I'm the pet dog. And, I help my pal raise all of these assistance puppies. It is not an easy job!
GERRIT
Hiya Everyone! My name is Gerrit and I was raised after Carlo! That makes me the 5th puppy my puppy raiser has raised for CCI! I headed off to doggie college (aka Advanced Training) in Aug of 2009. I'm working hard in college right now in the hopes that I'll someday graduate! But, I'm also doing what I do best... being the class clown!
RECOMMENDED READING
Love Heels
This book is filled with stories of the journey of CCI assistance dogs, volunteer puppy raisers, and graduates. My puppy raiser has this book and she always gets tears in her eyes when she reads some of the stories.
Life is Good
My puppy raiser has this book too... courtesy Uncle G & Auntie S! This book was written by a dog named Trixie... she is a wise dog who talks about how good life is!

that was amazing!!
Carlo,
My wife and I have enjoyed reading your blogs. We can't wait to hear how you are doing in college. We enjoy your photos and movies. Your blogs always brings a smile to our face. Best wishes.
Wow Carlo,
Awesome movie. If you happen to see Zane at college, could you show him how to make a movie? He'd like one, but, his PR is lazy!
Wow, that was AWESOME!! I had no idea Carlo had such talent. :O) That phot at the end does it to me every time. Sniff.
Really nice job, Keersten!
Carlo
I still love that photo at the end of you and your PR which I saw at my graduation. I'm impressed with your movie. Your blog made my partner smile while she was waiting for me. Okay I don't have to do much to do that but you couldn't wiggle your butt. So thanks!
We're related...my mom is your dad's sister. I see you inherited the family good looks.
Lots of wags
