Tuesday, November 26, 2013 at 9:01AM Check out this video of Griffin and maybe you will want this toy too, So, where did you get it? I want one too!
Hi Darlah::
Yes…Dusty is Official!. The youngest pup ever to pass the first test with Adults. There were four dogs, two passed, two failed. The evaluators called Dusty "The Bomb" …Bomb Proof.
Dusty was at Mount Sinai Hospital yesterday, had her picture taken for her ID…in line with all the other "people" in "Human Resources"…lol. I can try to scan her hospital ID Tag.
Dusty has to have 8 official visits at Mount Sinai, then in the New Year will be re-tested with children and then allowed to go into Sick Kids. The dogs need two certifications to work with children, but in the meantime is visiting the students in the Epilepsy Classroom outside at Sick Kids in front of the hospital as a very special treat. Dusty of course still visits my long term patient from Sick Kids at her home, has done so the minute I brought her home.

From us - way to go Team Dusty!

As a therapy dog, Dusty will bring smiles to many, many faces.

Griffin went back to play with it quite a few times and also works pretty well if you put other toys in there.
Also available in Canada via amazon - http://www.amazon.ca/Kyjen-Games-Hide-Squirrel-Extreme/dp/B0081XIAO6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1385479304&sr=8-1&keywords=Extreme+Hide
Griffin playing with his new toy was delightful.
Amazing Dusty! You are truly a very special gal and will bring joy to so many.
Congratulations Dusty! She will make a wonderful therapy dog. Well done team Dusty!
What a cute video of Griffin. Where did you get this toy? Griffin is such a cutie!
I got it at Home Sense (~15 - I seem to find nice discounted toys there) but you can get it from Amazon Canada (~20)or if you have someone in the states to forward it to you the company name is Kyjen and they sell them in the States online.
I liked it because you don't have to worry about the stuffing and being rubber it is easy to clean.
Okay so I just found it online at Rens and they are currently on sale for 14. Make sure you search for the "hide-a-squirrel-xtreme".
I was thinking of taking Harper down the therapy dog route. We need more training though.
That toy looks ideal, no stuffing to tear apart!!
Yael: Check out TPOC to see what you need to do. I know Simone says it is very rewarding. She did this with her late havanese Oliver too.
