We had the extraordinary opportunity to meet Kayla and Ashton on Tuesday this week. Describe something important you learned from their visit and use a "quote" to connect to something we read in Mom's Best Friend.
I felt bad for marit but she was loved a lot. Ursula was a great guid dog also and she was also loved a lot. "The mom always asked for Ursula and her kids were jeulous because it was never them".
I learned that you have to be dedicated to doing that because she takes a ton of time doing it and she cant hang out with friends that often. Also i learned that you have to train for eighteen months with whoever is taking care of the dog and then he can be a guide dog. " It took a while to train Ursula."
I learned than if they do not pass to be a guide dog they become a breader! I thought that was awesome because they will have more dog for other blind dogs. Also, it is awesome because some can do many oter very useful jobs. "When I told Ursula " Forward" she refused to move and kept me for stepping in front of a car."
I was SO happy to meet Ashton and Kayla!. Usually, I'd want to do something like that, but I learned that you have to be REALLY comitted to train them. And you have to watch them at most times. I love dogs, but I don't think I'm ready for something like that, just like Leslie wasn't ready for a new dog guide for mom, " Would she get along with the new dog?" She thought in the book.
There was plenty of important thing but what I think was more important was when she talked about the school work and everything she wasn't able to go out with her friends she still could do sports and other stuff but her time was valuble because Kayla had to juggle everything sport,homework,training the dog and other thing she is an inspiration to me I want to train dogs like her and I am already juggling thins exacly like her and in the book they only talked about the family nothing else and she did talk about how it is had letting the dogs go like this"Marit has been with us since I was born and her death left a big hole in our family I kept thinking I heard her whimpering for a game of catch." I think that is very painful and it is I lost the pet too it is as if the world ended but I soon learned shees not comeing back only in memories so thats the end sorry i typed too much .
I learnd that it takes 18 mounthes to pass the dog on to the officals for five mounths. Also the dog has to ovoide opstcals like cats, dogs, and trash cans. The dog will learn to help people who are blind." Usually ursula snakes me around this smelly obstacles. But sometimes the temptation to her nose wins out".
I thought it was really cool that I got to pet a dog guide.I learned that dog trainers put a vest on the dogs so that they can go into anyplace.That means they can even go into the movies!I also learned that when the dogs vest are off that means they can play all they want.Dog guides are also very smart like in the book,"Ursula tried to ignore a boxer dog who wanted to play,"thats what they did when their on duty.
I LOVED seeing them!!!!!!!! Kayla is very comitted to her job, and I like that quallity in her. Ashton is like my dog, he can be calm or very hyper. Kayla may not like some of her dogs at first but she learns to love them. But teaching them to do special tasks is hard like they said in the book "Crossing streets is tricky." I think that would be very hard to teach any dog that. What do you think? ;)
it was realy cool to have them here . i was thinking of voulentering but its going to be realy hard work like she said"i has to train her and then i still have to do my homework." i have homework to do so it'll be hard.where i live there are no dogs aloud .
I learned that if dogs dont pass there test to be a guied dog they can be a breader.I think thats really nice that they can alow other dogs to have jobs even if they dont get pass the first test they have.I also learned that there is more then just being a guied dog. For example dogs can be guard dogs, regular dogs, airplane surcurity dogs, and alot more. It was nice to see a guied dog in person and learn alot about how they train, eat, sleep, walk, and its nice to know people speend there time training guied dogs so they can grow up to be a good guied dog for a blind person out there. I also like how Kayla is comited to being a trainer to help some blind people. heres a cuote from page372 how guied dogs can be more then just a dog"Mom missed her even more.She dident lose just a sweet,furry pet, she lost her favorite way of traveling too." Heres another example on page 384 telling how people love guied dogs and need them"joel says Ursala is the best dog alve,and i always say shes the best dog on this planet."
Something important that I learned was to not judge something before you really do see what it looks like.I also learned that if you want to train a dog you will have to wait some time before the dog really understands what to do like, avoid cats,smelly garbage, and other things that dogs will attempt to play with or chase it. "Everyday Mom and Ursula take a walk and have mastered new routes.Each route became more longer and complicated."
I thought that is was very interesting to meet a guide dog and her temperary owner, even though I care very little for dogs. What I learned was that guide dogs have to be very careful when on duty because they could lead the blind person into danger. Here's a passage from the book "Mom's Best Friend", where it says,"After ten practice runs with Pete, Mom and Ursula soloed. Ursula didn't stop at the curb, so Mom had to scold her and snap her leash, calling ,"Pfui." Later Ursula crashed Mom into a low-hanging branch. "Ursula will start having to thimk tall," Mom said that night,"or I'll have to carry hedge clippers in my purse." That's just one of the many reasons that guide gods have to be very careful.
somthing cool that i learned is how they name and train the dogs. its helpful to me because when my dad oppens up his camp bow wow franchise im going to be the one raising our seeing eye dog "(ursulas brothers and sisters were also givin names starting with U"
I learned from Kayla and Ashton that you have to miss a lot privliges when you are a dog guide trainer. I also learned that training isn't just fun and games. You have to work hard and train a lot of hours a day. I thought dog guide training meant that you get to train and play with a puppy, but you really have to scold them and correct them when they do something wrong. Here is a quote from the story, "After ten practice runs with Pete, Mom and Ursula soloed. Ursula didn't stop at a curb, so Mom had to scold her and snap at her leash calling,'Pfui.'"
I learened that if you really want to help go ahead and help the dog and the blind person. And you can do this not to get money but to fell better yourself by helping the blind person.have fun doing and helping the dog and the personIt will make you fell like a great person by help evan if it the puppy raseing to the dog care"like magic I was in love with this dog
Something important that I learned from Kayla and Ashton was that being a trainer or a guide dog can be really fun. For instance, when you are a trainer, you may have to give up your time, but it's so you can train your dog to pass the final test when she finishes training with you.And when your a guide dog, I would think that that would be fun because that you get to work and play at the same time. If I was a guide dog I would love it! "But on mom;s first lesson in morristown, Ursula seemed to forget her training. She veeered on a street crossing and brushed Mom into a bush. Mom had to make her correct herself by backing up and walking around the bush. Then mom praised her."
I learned a lot about dog guides tuesday. I learned that if the dog guide wears it's vest it can go any where any moives and shops and other things too. I also learned that dog guides can't just be any dog it has to be a dog from a breeder. so if you wanted your dog to be a dog guide it couldn't but it could be some else."he wanted to choose a dog that would suit her best."
I learned that Kayla had been a volenteer to help train dogs to be guide dogs. From what Kayla said, most blind people were so much happier to have a guide dog rather than using a cane. I also learned that you have to train a dog for hours at a time to have it become a sucsessful guide dog, thearopy dog, police dog, ect. Another thing I learned was that a dog has to be approved by the leader and be very healthy to be a breeding dog. I also learned how careful a guide dog has to be while leading their owner. Here is an example from page 377, "Ursula will have to start thinking tall or else I'll have to carry hedge clippers in my purse." Most important of all, I learned that when a guide dog has his badge on, he knows he/she is on duty and that he/she doesn't have time to play.
I learned a lot on tuesday. Whan the dog has its vest on it can go to the moves and stors. Seeing eye dogs are very smart and when your walking and a dog goes by it does not chase it. Dog guides can only come from a breeder."My friends thought dog guids were little machins that zoomed blind people around."
somthing i learned from Kayla and Ashton was it was 2 have funand have lots of intest in the guide dogtraining. another thing i learned was u may have 2 give up most of your time like homework,friends,and alot more of time.It also taught that all dogs are named from after all the litter."Ursula didnt stop at the crub, soMom crashed into a branch."
I learned that dogs that are born from the same "litter all there names start with the same letter".Ashton's, mom's name was favor and the dogs have to go threw training for along time and they have to take a test but if they don't pass it they can be a real dog and they don't have to be a guide dog.
I learned that you have to be ready to scrafice anything. like spending time with your friends, and doing fun activities with your family. I also learned that you have to be firm, fair, and loving with the dog your traing. "Mom had to scold her and snap her leash, calling Pfui."
I laerned that all the dogs from a litter names start with the same letter as the mom's name. I also learned that dogs have to go through 18 months of training, then the dogs go through 3-5 more months of training before they can help blind people. In the story it says," Ursula has to work with Pete before he can help Mom."
I felt bad for marit but she was loved a lot. Ursula was a great guid dog also and she was also loved a lot. "The mom always asked for Ursula and her kids were jeulous because it was never them".
