| Notes from the trainers at Support Dogs INC. BeBe is becoming a Signal Dog and training to be a companion for a deaf person. See some of the comments from her trainer. We are most proud of this girl. Also, we must never forget the trainers who donate the most precious of commodiites, TIME ! They put their heart and soul into these dogs, then watch them go on to be an invaluable help to the handicapped. Thanks, we could not be there without you.

BEBE is doing great. Just got back from trip to Arkansas farm with her. Had her spayed today. She is doing wonderfully on obedience AND signaling - doing great with door knock. I am guessing I'll have her 4-6 more months; I hope six. Love this dog. She gets PLENTY of exercise and loves to work, but we won't be doing much for the next ten days. Taking her to wedding in Memphis last weekend in July.

BeBe is doing wonderfully. We are going to Signal class. She is alerting to cell phone, door knock, started picking up keys and leash, and just started alert to smoke alarm. She is the sweetest girl. Had her spayed. She is very gentle. I love her dearly. See you at Trivia

BeBe is just doing great. I love your dogs. She is the sweetest, gentlest, most lovable girl. she is fabulous at signal training...alerting to smoke alarm, door knock, door bell, cell phone, picking up dropped keys, picking up her leash. We were swarmed at Chesterfield Mall tonight. Took her to see 'Hairspray' - she loved it. She has been to several movies. We are in public ALL THE TIME. She has handed out so many brochures, and is a wonderful spokesdog for SDI. Looking forward to seeing you at Trivia. I will have her with me, so you can give her a hug. When she is placed, I want another dog from you. I am so spoiled with getting the best dogs. We go to Einsteins everyday for breakfast, and she has this ability to bring grown men in suits down to the floor talking baby talk and making complete fools of themselves. I LOVE HER. Took her to Memphis to wedding. Taking her to another wedding end of Sept in Poplar Bluff MO.
I hear from Teller's person all the time and she loves him dearly, and he has a really good life. Bill Dahlkamp said Tattles with her person is one of the best teams he has ever seen.

(NOTE: Teller [Alibi x Bing] is SDI's first signal dog and is paving the way for other dogs to become companions for the deaf). Tattles is Teller's sister who is also a service dog. Both these dogs are littermates to our beautiful Echo (BOSS. CH. Ducktales And On And On), who is owned and loved by Valerie Jones.
We have many of our kids in service to the handicapped. We believe they and their parents deserve special recognition for the contributions they have made.
