Sharing this special reunion and recall to celebrate all mothers today! Orinda has made her way to the Oregon campus for recall, but not before reuniting with her mom Gail who is now a working guide in Washington!! Gail was selected as a charter stock dog and then went on to guide, while her puppy Orinda made her way to Austin for training! This was such a special visit for all… people and puppy mothers together, sharing stories, laughter and so much love!! Congratulations to Sydney for recalling Orinda, and Happy Mother’s Day to ALL!!!❤️🐾💐
