Welcome back to Amber’s Puppy Pen!

Your clever sponsor pup is doing brilliantly in her training. She is continuing to develop her confidence with new experiences and in different places. At a recent checkup vet appointment, Amber was a superstar and took it all in her stride.

It is important that Amber feels comfortable being handled at the vets, as she will have regular checkups throughout her life, to ensure she stays happy and healthy.

Amber even had a brief encounter with a fluffy cat in the waiting room – and she was so calm and gentle. What a polite pup!

Short and positive interactions like this will help Amber to feel prepared for the different animals she may meet with her future deaf partner.

In other news, Amber visited a local National Trust site, with her friend Hugo, a fellow pup in training. They had an exciting adventure and enjoyed exploring the different walking trails and practising their recall.
