Training postponed

Hello!

   Yesterday I was so supposed to start training, but it got postponed.  I don't know what date it is yet, but I will be sure to let you all know when it is.  Can’t  wait to finally start!  This job is a very important one that will help so many people in so many situations, I can't think of anything I would rather do.

 Hello! August is fast approaching, which is when my training really gets going.  I already started on the basic sit, down, off, and come, but I will need to learn so much more for my career.  I hope you're as excited as I am for me to help people in all kinds of situations, people in nursing homes, hospitals, people with disabilities or people who just need a friend or a little inspiration.  I’m not there yet, but that is the goal of my training to be able to help all those people find joy, hope, and inspiration for tomorrow.  It’s a long road for a small puppy, but with all the good it will do, it’s well worth the walking.

Untold’s Ishani

Allow me to introduce myself.  My name is Ishani.  I am a Pembroke Welsh Corgi hailing from Washington state.  I arrived at my new home in Kentucky on July 10th to join my new family and embark on an incredible journey, a journey to become a companion/assistance animal for my family and a visiting animal for others in hospitals, nursing homes or struggling with disabilities.  Quite a career path for a little dog, but I am very excited.  As I see it, my job will not be about illness, disability or hardship, but rather learning to live life to its fullest and find joy despite all these things.   My official education starting with puppy class begins on Aug 1st.  I will have a long way to go, but I will share my journey with you and sincerely hope all of you out there walking the same road will share your stories and adventures with me.  Together we can overcome obstacles, celebrate victories and help each other and embrace life while forming friendships and connections through common experiences affirming a simple but often forgotten truth; we are not alone no matter what struggles in life we face.
