“I am incredibly grateful that my son has somebody who sees him
Spring 2014 “Angel brings help, comfort, and laughter. She is helping Emily to become more independent, confident and focused. Angel makes it so much easier to work through difficult problems and tasks that make Emily feel nervous, afraid, or upset.” —Emily’s mother, Kimberly Angel Breeder: Pam Hand Puppy Raiser: Mark Elder Foster Family: Cindy Martin Trainer: Debbie Conner “I am incredibly grateful that my son has somebody who sees him and not just autism. Asia doesn't care if Micah talks differently; she loves him for HIM.” —Micah’s mother, Rachel Asia Breeder: Pam Hand Puppy Raiser: Termaine Richardson Trainer: Susan Maynard Flash Helps Charlotte with mobility: She helps her keep her balance, helps with transitioning from different surfaces and manage stairs, and Flash will pick up things that Charlotte drops. Charlotte has Flash’s full attention. Flash Breeder: Pam Hand Puppy Raiser: Keith MacDonald Trainer: Connie Kniseley Sandy Breeders: Kim Noel and Janell Love Puppy Raisers: Penny and Brown Stegall Trainer: Lesleigh Cook Romeo Breeder: Pam Hand Puppy Raiser: Jae Hairston Trainer: Carol Waters “Romeo is my best friend. I haven't had many friends in my life. But now I have one forever!” —DeAnna “He is my partner and best companion! He is always there for me, 24/7. I think he sleeps with one eye open. My activities of daily living have improved a lot since I got Titus because he is able to help me and is there for me with unconditional love and support!” Sandy had a calming affect on Gary, while giving his wife, Cindy, peace of mind when she was not home. Sandy helped Cindy care for Gary in many ways. Gary loved Sandy dearly for the short time they had together before he passed away. —Leslie Titus Breeder: Jenny Mitchell Puppy Raisers: Steven Cole and Jeff Connor Trainer: Connie Kniseley “Paris offers Jake independence, which makes him feel secure and confident in so many situations. Paris inspires Jake to socialize, try new adventures and continue to enjoy his life.” —Jake’s mother, Lori Paris Breeders: Clay & Mike Morrissett Puppy Raisers: Robert Fisher & Krista Vannoy Trainers: Carol Waters & Elizabeth Nemore Boon Breeder: Pam Hand Puppy Raiser: Holland Davy Trainer: Nancy Cunningham Rocky says that just simply having Boon by his side gives him peace of mind and a sense of freedom of movement. “He is great companion and always in a good mood. Most importantly, he helps me to forget my limitations and has improved my quality of life.” —Rocky Gatsby Breeders: Tracy and Jackie Waller Puppy Raiser: Kim Noel Trainer: Lesleigh Cook Deuce Breeder: Pat Weisse Puppy Raiser: Kacy Toliver Foster Family: Susan Lambui Trainer: Debbie Conner “Gatsby is a partner that helps my child succeed where there was no success previously. I am feeling a connection with my son that has been slowly fading the past several years. I am excited for the future and am anticipating much more positive change and improvement.” —Tyler’s mother, Tina “The students talk because of Deuce and his presence. They work harder and read more complicated words because Deuce is there to listen. His existence is nothing but positive.” —Stacey BRAAC Jazz “Claire says that the very best thing about having Jazz is that they are able to be together all the time. Jazz makes her numerous hospital visits less scary and a lot easier to manage. He goes with her for X-rays, and he soothes her while she gets stitches, biopsies and new tubes. He is also there for Claire when she wakes up after anesthesia, which is very comforting.” Breeder: Beth Semones Puppy Raisers: James Flaherty and Robert Hough Foster Family: Judy Bates Trainer: Connie Kniseley —Claire’s mother, Karen “Seth has increased my emotional and physical quality of life.” Sarah continues to say, “This fall I plan to begin my doctorate in feminist philosophy with the goal of publishing and becoming a professor. These ambitions never could have been realized without Seth. He has given me the gift of independence.” —Sarah Seth Breeder: Pam Hand Puppy Raisers: Ivy Lidstone and Donzia Mumford Foster Family: Michael Rindorf Trainer: Debbie Conner Cal alerts us by barking when Nicolas is having night terrors. We know that when Cal barks, he is requesting help for his boy. —Nicholas's mother, Summer Cal Breeder: Pam Hand Puppy Raisers: Donzia Mumford and Kacy Toliver Trainer: Connie Kniseley A big thanks to the Advanced Trainers in The Prison Pup Program at Bland Correctional Center: Robert Fisher, Paul Patterson, Alex Fisher, Keith Miller, Brian Cox, & Justin Stoney.
