BESSIE Dog of the month for June 2008

Another busy few weeks and Dog of the month at Greenland K9 Training for June 2008 is BESSIE the 13 year old black Labrador Retriever.

Bessie was rescued in 2001 by her present owners - she had a hard life until she came to stay in Caithness. Although deaf and partially sighted Bessie accompanies her companion Molly a black Cocker Spaniel on Sundays for training.

Bessie is more than happy to accompany me taking the class and will happily sit or walk around with me in the field to show them how its done - she joins in when using hand signals and hasn't forgotten her working life. It was a pleasure to award Bessie the first certificate for Greenland K9 Dog of the month. Well done Bessie
