Bear and I became Kiwanis Members!

Here we are being inducted into the Westside Kiwanis Club. Bear and I have been attending for about 2 months and we were just accepted as members. Bear wears his Kiwanis pin on his service dog jacket.

Meet Kiwi

As you can see, Kiwi is fitting in nicely. Bear is doing fantastic with her. He used to bark and bark whenever she made the slightest noise. Now he only barks if she does something outrageous like flapping her wings in the cage. We never have her out of the cage when the dogs or cats are in the room. They either go outside or are closed in a bedroom. Bear's bird therapy is working very well. 

Bear has a new sister

Meet Kiwi. She is a green cheeked Conure and she is about 2 months old. She has joined our family as part of Bears training.

Bear has bird issues. He barks and barks at them just like he barked at the hot air balloon. We are hoping that if we can desensitize him to birds, he will be able to live with one if he goes to a client who has a pet bird.

WOW! That was unexpected

We had a hot air balloon land in our neighbors yard. Very impressive and it drove Bear crazy!! You can hear him in the background.
