Tonight @ 8pm Ch.4 a new Series of 3 episodes called Rescue Dog to Super Dog. It is a series pairing dogs from rescue centres around the UK with six people with disabilities. Aided by two of the country's top dog trainers, the aim is to transform the canine companions into disability helper dogs in 12 weeks. The first edition meets 26-year-old Emily, who has narcolepsy and cataplexy, meaning she can collapse up to 30 times a day, and desperately wants a dog to guard her when she passes out in the street. Meanwhile, Alan, who has Tourette's, wants a dog to support him during his tic attacks, which sometimes leave him hospitalised.
The reason I mention woofgang's name is that one of the country's top dog trainers mentioned is Jo-Rosie Haffenden, the dog psychiatrist I have used and woof and I have discussed in a previous post.
Should be a good watch I hope so anyway.

It was a marvellous programme. At first OH was a bit disturbed about dogs being tied to difficult lives, but then it became clear that they had no other future and that they were thoroughly enjoying their lives as helper-dogs. An inspiring programme, aren't dogs wonderful? What will they be doing in the future?

Jordain I agree, the way Emily's dog reacted when seeing her again for the first time after being taken away for training by Jo-Rosie was really heartwarming. Obviously an enormous bond had already been established in such a short time.
And also Alan, so lost without his dog while it was getting further training. Can't see a down side me!

I thoroughly enjoyed it...couldn't imagine why Dukehad already been in 2 homes. And I almost despaired with lovely Poppy...she was keen but so playful. It was wonderful that both dogs have forever homes now,and can be so useful and great companions at the same time.
My Sally is the first dog I've ever had on my own. It's been six years now,and people stop me and tell me I've done such a wonderful job with her. I feel like I've done little,and am still finding my way with her. Wouldn't be without her.
