Puppy Raising

I love to raise puppies for CCI. I love to take the puppies to work and talk to people about what I do and what the puppies will become. I have a few canned responses. "She will be a wheelchair assist, or a hearing assist dog", or "she will be a service dog for a person with a disability besides blindness". They are quick, give people basic information even if not complete information. Today it was hard to give those answers to the people who stopped us during our lunchtime walk. I kept adding the phrase "if she makes it" in my mind.
