- Synopsis
- Ira a Golden Retriever puppy born at PawsAbilities in Montana, is raised by a sixth grade teacher and loved by her class, but when it is time for Ira to return back for formal service dog training, there is a problem. The training center where Ira needs to go isn't ready yet. And no other service dog school needs him. Can Ira learn another career as a guide dog at Guide Dogs for the Blind Inc.? Follow Ira as he learns to be a service dog, turning on lights, and pawing Handicapped push buttons, and retrieving objects, to his work in harness and his graduation as a guide dog. Good book for all ages. Has some great photographs and captions. Good for teaching kids about service dogs.
