               Hi Everyone! I would ove to share my story about my dog,Apple.  I got Apple through the Golden Retreiver Freedom rescue here in colorado and it was the best matchup I ever had with a dog. 

                                 I have mild hearing loss in both ears so  I needed to have a dog to help me hear things when my ears are out, she is not a train "hearing dog", but she learns quickly. I call Apple my companion dog. What I mean by that  is that she helps me meet new people when we are out,  I fear of meeting new people at times and Apple helps me crack out of the shell. Dogs have a good sence of judgemnt so if they don't like someone, they don't go near them.  When the phone rings and I don't hear it, she howls. Cute huh!

          Apple is well love my everyone in my family.. she is good with my Nephew who is slowy getting over the fear of dogs and also good with my  grandma who has demetia. What more can  say?
