Taaaa-daaaaa! It's Stanford! Alex's new service dog! Stanford is a 15 month old Golden Retriever. He was puppy raised at the Ellsworth Correctional Facility in Ellsworth, KS.
We spent a week training with Stanford in Concordia, KS. He is a wonderful dog, but since we've been home, he's needed to be reminded that he is a TRAINED dog! LOL Alex is going to love him!
We will be working on the dog going to school with Alex. Since school starts Wednesday, we may not get him right to school the first day or even the first week!
If you are interested in a service dog, the organization we used is CARES. They are a wonderful group of people and truly care about the dogs and the people! Check out their website. Also, if you're looking for some place for donations, they would love to receive donations and give scholarships to those who cannot afford the entire cost of a service dog!

I am so glad that Alex has the dog. I'm sure they will be a wonderful pair. Hope everything works out on the school front. I will be looking for updates to see how that goes.
How does Stanford assist Alex? Hope it goes well at school.
