Congratulations to Melon and his client for successfully completing team training! This month, Melon spent the first few weeks practicing and perfecting all his skills with his trainer, advanced sitter, and with some novel handlers. For the last week of February, he travelled to Calgary to complete team training with his client. After a week of hard work, Melon is officially a certified accredited facility dog! We are all so excited for this team, and we wish them all the best in the future. Thank you again to everyone who had a part in Melon’s journey – it wouldn’t be possible without all our amazing volunteers and sponsors.
