Training your dog should be done in many different locations. If you only train at one spot your dog will only behave in that location. Nikki Esser

This was a beautiful wedding. God has blessed our family with two amazing men for our wonderful daughters, whom we are proud to call our sons.

On May 27, 1942, Guide Dogs for the Blind was born. Co-founders Lois Merrihew and Don Donaldson began training dogs and instructing students from a rented home in Los Gatos, California, just south of San Jose. GDB's first class consisted of two students, and now, over 80 years later, we have more than 16,000 graduates!

I have been blessed to work and train with many of God's amazing creations! Probably my favorite, other than humans, are dogs. (anyone that knows me well knows how much I love all of God’s creation) It brings me so much joy to see how God can use dogs and all of creation to help us and teach us. To see Echo with the relationship of students and staff brings me much joy! I continue to pray for every dog team that I have had the honor and blessing of working with.
