SSD Irwin has found a new home with Ryan, one of our trainers.
As sometimes happens, the life situation of Irwin’s puppy raisers changed and
they were no longer able to take care of him. His routine is a little different
now, but he has done very well adjusting to his new home.
Irwin helped Ryan get ready for a 5K race at the beginning
of October. They ran about four miles together every other day. “He’s a great
runner and will actually pace himself with you as you run,” said Ryan.
If you’ve been following Irwin, you know that he went almost
everywhere with his puppy raisers. He has continued to go out in public
frequently. He’s gone to the grocery store, multiple restaurants, and of
course, Petco.
Irwin goes to work with Ryan, which means Irwin has been
getting a taste of kennel life. He seems to be enjoying his time at the kennel
and play with the other dogs.
Overall, Irwin has done quite well adjusting to his new home—which
is exactly what we would hope for and expect from a service dog in training.
