Here are some pictures from my class visits in Post Primary this week ๐Ÿ’œ Youโ€™ll notice from these pictures that I do more than just give out cuddles, my reading skills are developing really well ๐Ÿคฃ
This is my very own TEAM RAIA ๐ŸŽ‰ I was super excited to introduce my favourite doggie trainer Gary from @assistancedogsni to my human handlers in school this week. We had a whole training session all about me ๐ŸŽ‰ I was able to show them lots of the things I learnt with Gary during my Doggie School ๐Ÿ’œ I love going out and about with my team to visit their class๐Ÿพ. Itโ€™s so important for me that I know I have a handler to look to for my commands - they also make sure Iโ€™m always on my best behaviour ๐Ÿคฃ PS a few of my team are missing from this pic, I love them too ๐Ÿ’œ
This is what happens when everyone goes home and Iโ€™ve a lovely wet slide to play on ๐Ÿคฃ
What a very busy time Iโ€™ve been having! Iโ€™ve loved getting to know my new friends in the Ducklings, they were even asking when I was coming back again! Of course I love all my old friends too. Iโ€™ve been getting used to my new timetable and learning how to behave for all my new Team Raia handlers!
It was our BIG graduation day today ๐ŸŽ‰ Me and my 6 siblings were so proud to celebrate all the hard work of training over the last months ๐Ÿพ Iโ€™m now an official Assistance Dog ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป @assistancedogsni We had Doggie School every Friday and lots of practice up the corridors and in the classrooms. Gary, our amazing trainer, deserves a big medal for his patience with us and our humans too! Iโ€™m super excited to celebrate my graduation in school with all my chums very soon. I even got an extra special certificate for learning how to actually walk and not just sit looking at my Mummy ๐Ÿคฃ when I was a little tiny puppy. I was very happy to see my @wingitbelfast friends Ellie and Ethan at my graduation too ๐Ÿ’œ What a special day ๐ŸŽ‰ How do you think we should celebrate in school?
This week I was so happy to welcome everyone back to school, my tail was wagging a lot ๐ŸŽ‰ I think they were happy to see me too, there were a lot of smiles ๐Ÿ’œ One of my chums thanked me for my visit and told me that the cuddle had made them feel relaxed ๐Ÿฅฐ I love my job!
Iโ€™ve been in school the last couple of weeks getting ready for the new school year ๐ŸŽ‰. I was so excited to go on a big trip out for the staff wellbeing day - can anyone spot me in the group photo? ๐Ÿ’œ The other big excitement this week was my last Doggie School class with my bro and sisters - watch this space for our BIG graduation party coming up very soon! ๐ŸŽ‰
This was my very first visit to @wingitbelfast. Theyโ€™re a pretty cool bunch! Just for the record I did NOT eat any of the chicken ๐Ÿ˜‚ it was only my chums who had that very special privilege. I will tell you that it smelt pretty good so is worth checking out! Thanks @wingitbelfast for everything youโ€™ve done for me ๐Ÿ’œ The link is in my bio to see the full episode including my cousin Peanut ๐Ÿพ #AssistanceDogsNI #assistancedog #schoolassistancedog
This was only my first week in school! My friends were amazing in this weekโ€™s episode ๐Ÿ’œ
