| Graduation day, August 14, 1999. After five months of formal harness training, I was partnered with Timothy, a college student, bass guitar player, and volunteer teacher for blind children from Albuquerque, New Mexico. We are two high spirited individuals and worked well together right from the start. To quote Tim, "He is a joy to work with and I'm sure we will have many good years together." | |

It was an exciting and warm day. My second raiser family, the Howards, was there and we were really excited to see each other again. I hadn't seen them since I returned to Guide Dogs last February 21. My first raiser family wasn't able to come; but, I was told that they were very proud of ;me and wished me the best. Tim and the Howards, Jim, Pam, Susan, and Amanda, got to know each other better while I relaxed. |
| During the ceremony, Jim and Amanda (my bud) presented me to Tim. I feel very blessed and proud to be Tim's guide dog and I know he will take wonderful care of me. I am looking forward to my new life in New Mexico and many years of service with Tim. | |
