Noah

This is Noah the latest RB guide dog in training to come into our home. He came to us at christmas time 2010 and i really think he is a horse disguised as a dog because he is a big boy. He has settled so well with the whole family including our cat Tiger. Tiger likes to rub his head on Noah's chest and then flick him with his tail as he passes. Cheeky cat but he loves them.



Noah should be with us for a couple more months and then hopefully will go into more intense training with the RBS.
He really is a gorgeous boy. Has night dreams which can get very loud with running paws as well. He is also a keen gardener. Was at a friends house the other day and he helped himself to a ripe strawberry, spitting our the green top. Although that was being saved for our friends granddaughter. He also ate what he though was grass but was in fact little bamboo. Unfortunately he pulled the whole plant out. oops! But we replanted it so fingers crossed not too much damage. He also likes to pick his own tomatoes from the vines in the backyard. He is currently resting happily after a morning bath, walk and breakfast.

Noah is such a character! When I was at the Autism conference the other day there were two RSB Autism dogs - one just like Noah. His person said that he's great at hitting things off the tables with his tail - gotta love 'em!
