Carver Graduated as a Service Dog!

The day we hoped for finally arrived. We got the call that Carver had made a preliminary match and the following Wednesday, Deb, PJ III and I were in route to Ohio.

Before graduation we got to see Carver. It had been 6 long months, but, it was as if he'd just left yesterday! Mr. Wiggles was in full blown body wiggle!



Then the Kansas City Crew got their Carver time!







Then we got a pic of Carver and his brother Callahan.

And finally...Graduation!!!!!

Handing the leash over to Dustin. Can you see how happy Carver is?

What a wonderful time in Ohio! Great to see Ansel, Joe & Denise and then to have Carver graduate with Dustin. Good luck to Dustin and Carver as they head off to their Junior year at Ball State University.


We sure do love being puppy raisers for Canine Companions!

  1. What a great time we had in Ohio. I love the picture of the turning over of the leash. Both Dustin and Carver look so happy. I can't wait to hear about the continuing adventures together. Mark and Deb, you are fantastic puppy raisers and certainly raised a sweet, wiggly, smart boy!
