Another week done ✅ It’s been a busy one for me, here are some pictures to show you some things I’ve been doing. I was very excited this week, one of my chums who was really unsure of me when I first came into school was brave enough to brush me this week 🎉 I’ve been working hard on building their confidence - my humans in Team Raia tell me that’s what I’m good at 💜

I had a fab visit to @mencapni this week 🎉 I met lots of new little friends, mummy told me a was a very good girl and stayed super calm. I also met new ‘big’ friends who gave me such a warm welcome and good ear scratches too.

A round up of photos from a very busy week 🥳

I was so happy to welcome some VIPs to school to celebrate our @nurtureuk award 🎉 it was a fun day of celebrations! Thanks so much to our guests from @educationauthority, @de_northern_ireland and our other partners for all the cuddles! I had to listen while Mummy told SO many stories about me, but I have to say there were all true! I’ve been a big part of the Nurture journey and I’m so proud we got the award 🥳

One of my favourite things to do is to sit up on the knees of my chums. I know who likes to invite me up, can you see how well I can sit in lots of ways? My chums all cuddle me in different ways - I love it 💜 This week one of my chums told me they have never loved any dog apart from me and when they feel stressed a cuddle for me helps a lot, I feel so proud that my hard work is paying off 💜🎉

Here are some pictures from my class visits in Post Primary this week 💜 You’ll notice from these pictures that I do more than just give out cuddles, my reading skills are developing really well 🤣

This is my very own TEAM RAIA 🎉 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 🎉 I was able to show them lots of the things I learnt with Gary during my Doggie School 💜 I love going out and about with my team to visit their class🐾. It’s so important for me that I know I have a handler to look to for my commands - they also make sure I’m always on my best behaviour 🤣 PS a few of my team are missing from this pic, I love them too 💜

This is what happens when everyone goes home and I’ve a lovely wet slide to play on 🤣

What a very busy time I’ve been having! I’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. I’ve been getting used to my new timetable and learning how to behave for all my new Team Raia handlers!
