We are very excited to announce that Alpine has been matched with a client! Way to go, Pinenut! Alpine and her client will start team training at the end of November. While she waits excitedly for her first day on the job, Alpine has been spending time doing real-life training on tricky things like putting toys in a basket and retrieving items out of the dryer. Alpine’s trainer, Evelyn and the PADS advanced training staff are very grateful to the amazing community of volunteers and the PADS puppy program staff whose love and hard work made Alpine’s success possible! Congratulations Team Alpine!
