Happy World Book Day from everyone at Canine Partners
Posted 8 years ago in the Meet the four-legged team category
Today on World Book Day we're having some fun on social media and sharing pictures of two of our demo dogs, Radley and Doyle, dressed as various book characters.
We’re asking our followers to see if they can guess who Radley and Doyle are dressed as. Make sure you check out the pictures and let us know what you think.
We thought we’d also share with you on World Book Day the two books we are proud that our canine partners feature in.
The first is the funny, heart-warming and almost true story of Labradoodle puppy Harvey. The book tells the story of his adventures and journey to becom
e a Canine Partners assistance dog … as dictated to his human partner, Lizzie Dyche.
Lizzie says: “This book is based on the real life of Harvey my Canine Partners assistance dog. The events Harvey has put in his
book really happened, although some of the timings and details have been changed. As to his thoughts about them… they are his and I can’t comment on them!”
This book is suitable for all ages, especially the young at heart! You can purchase this book on our online charity shop.
The second book we’re proud to feature in is the recently published and amazing story of canine partner Ted and how he has saved his partner Wendy’s life time after time. The book, written by Wendy, is called My Life in His Paws.
Wendy Hilling has a rare skin condition which means her skin is very delicate. Every moment is difficult and causes pain. It affects the body inside and out: her throat is very narrow and she can stop breathing at any time. But eight years ago Wendy’s life changed forever. She met Ted, the Golden Retriever, and he became her full-time carer. Wendy and Ted showcase the unique relationship between a human and animal and the extraordinary things animals are capable of.
You can purchase My Life In His Paws on Amazon or for more information visit mylifeinhispaws.co.uk.
