Yesterday around dinner time my mom told me that Vickie Hennig had called and that she is coming on the 16th. Wow, it kinda shocked me. I was waiting for that call all along, but then it came. I am happy that Lamar is leaving. This is the whole point in which I did a seeing eye puppy. Now he needs to go back and hopfully fulfill his roll as a seeing eye dog. But, at the same time I’ll miss him. He’s been at my side(figurativly speeking) for a little over a year and a half. Here is a few things I wrote in the Final Report form I did for Lamar for the seeing eye.
Please tell us about your puppy's personality, temperament and outstanding behavior traits:
He LOVES people! Get's excited easily and loves to play. He's funny, and makes everyone laugh. Kinda get's tired easy tho. I think he does very well on walks besides when he decides to park half way through. He thinks he's a lap dog. Always wants to be by people. If he looses sight of me(I'm taking a shower, go outside without him seeing, or he just looses track of me) he starts to whine until I come back in sit or talk to him. Loves laying on people's feet, being petted and talked to. Gives everyone a good morning kiss!
Toys (What toys did your puppy play with? Like Best? Destroy?):
He liked bones. Shoes, he didn't chew on them, but he likes to sleep with his head in a shoe, silly dog. Also he loves sitting(trying to lay) in wash baskets. He also likes his crate(he takes things in there without us knowing!).
Cute Stories (Things you'll remember most about your puppy.):
The one time we took Lamar out on our boat with us. That's another thing he enjoyed very much. Well, I jumped in the water to go wake boarding and Lamar went crazy. He ran around trying to get out of the boat. We think he though I was drowning and wanted to save him. I told him it was ok, but he still kept an eye on me the whole time I was in the water.
Oh, another cute thing Lamar does for me, is he's my insect detector. I'm terrified of spiders, and any bug for that matter. Lamar loved to step on them though, and eat them of course : )
