Assistance Dog for Isaac

  • Much needed update!

    Hello everyone - firstly, I need to apologise for the lack of updates, we have had a busy few months - Isaac was quite unwell. Anyway, he is fully back to his cheeky little self and I have some updates for anyone interested.

    Firstly, Isaac has received a very generous $5000 donation towards the training of his Dog from a charitable Trust that we have been associated with since Isaac was very young. We are so so grateful for their support, just like everyone else who has so kindly donated.

    This Donation is not reflected in his givealittle page, but it brings us very close to our goal of $20,000 - we are now at $19,800!!!! YAY!!

    As you know, Lady was brought in to the assessment facility to do more training to see if her and Isaac were the perfect match. Matching the dogs with potential kids is very complex.

    After more assessment, it was decided that Lady was better matched with another young boy with complex needs and who has been waiting longer than Isaac. This young boy required the type of very quiet gentle Dog Lady showed herself to be.

    We are thrilled that Lady will be placed with a companion that really needs her.

    In the meantime Isaac met another potential dog, and the two of them seemed to have an instant bond. This Dog is quite animated and amazing with Isaac, the two of them seem like they would be great pals. They have met a few times now and it has been decided that this gorgeous boy (Dog) will be brought in for further assessment to see if he is exactly what Isaac needs. We are very hopeful as we have all fallen in love with this Dog. So, it will be a littler more of a wait for Isaac but we understand the trainers difficult job at needing to place to correct dogs with the right companions.

    So, thank you all for your support and any questions, please ask.

    Isaac and his Team xx

  • Isaac Meets Lady, his Dog-to-be!

      5 August 2016

    Exciting news! Isaac met Lady his dog-to-be for the first time today - it was love at first sight! :-) It was so adorable to see the two interacting. Lady is the most beautiful sweetest Dog, she is perfect for our sweet kind little boy!

    Isaac was also being 'interviewed' by the BOP times to feature in this weekends paper - so keep your eyes peeled for the article!

    Through all this excitement his mummy forgot to get her own photos - I have kindly asked the reporter if she wouldn't mind sharing a couple so I can post to this page to show you all - watch this space!

    We are truly thankful for everyone's support so far, it has totally blown us away, gratitude plus!!

    lots of love

    Isaac, Lady and Shelley
