Puppy Academy: Training in action. Episode 6 – Buddy dogs

Summary

There’s a lot to learn for puppies who set out on the training to become assistance dogs, sadly, not every dog makes the grade. Here Charlotte the trainer tells us about the ‘Buddy Dog’ options for puppies who don’t quite meet the high standards needed to be a fully fledged Guide Dog. This is the sixth in a series following the training process and we will be adding new episodes roughly once a month and building them into a box set on the Soundings website allowing TNs to use them at a time to suit local schedules. Thanks to Guide Dogs and St Albans & District TN for sharing this series with Soundings users.
