Today we spent a wonderful afternoon at John Paul II School in Stony Plain. It started out just as an invite for Ebony to meet Mr. Allan's grade 6 class. Once the other teachers heard about her visit the invite was extended to bring as many Dogs with Wings puppies as possible and to do a presentation to the entire school. We were joined by Ebony's Dad Wally and Kendal and her foster puppy Brooklyn.
First we met with the Kindergarten through Grade 3 classes. Ebony did her best to show the kids all of the skills she has learned to assist a future client with limited mobility. Then we met with all the kids in Grade 4 through 8. This time we used Mr. Allan as a volunteer to show how Ebony can take socks off. I'm pleased to report that all of Mr. Allan's toes are still in tact. Both groups of children asked many wonderful questions and really seemed to enjoy the presentation. By the time we got home, Ebony was exhausted from all of the special attention she received.
