Val and Mariah Gutteter visited the April 1st club meeting with very special guests. Val has been a breeder for the Leader Dog School for the Blind for the last ten years. Starting with her first dog Hanna, 4 liters of 11 puppies each generated 8 graduates of the leader dog school. Val's daughter Maraih has been very involved with the process and according to Val, Mariah now does most of the work at the time of delivery. After the retirement of Hannah, Val and Mariah have accepted Greta,. A German Sheppard that has recently had her second set of pups. The two recent pups were a great hit at the meeting. Big hopes for their future jobs will be assessed as Val needs to deliver them to the Leader Dog School April 10th. If they pass their examination and assessment, they will be placed with a family to socialize them for the next year. After their return the next time they will be ready for their career as a leader dog.
