Teamwork makes everything better!
Life’s better together as we tackle tough challenges, share exhilarating victories or savor the quiet moments of friendship.
That’s certainly true for our Leader Dog teams. There’s a very special bond between our clients and their canine guides. It’s a feeling that there’s nothing they can’t achieve together. Together, they’re unstoppable.
And you make that possible!
Andi, who has vision and hearing challenges, is a busy mom of three children whom she homeschools. She also works in online sales and teaches sign language. She says that O&M training at Leader Dog made her life so much easier.
“The city - stoplights, cars - I can't always hear, so using the vision that I do have, I combine what I can hear with what I can see,” says Andi. “The cane travel skills I developed during O&M were extremely helpful and my anxiety just disappeared.”
Then, last year, Andi and Leader Dog Elroy became a team. “Having Elroy has boosted my confidence even more. I feel like I can get places faster. I chose Leader Dog because of the DeafBlind program.”
