Last week the New York Times did a big article about 4pawsforability. The really cool thing is that this article is about the very first FASD service dog and his family. It also talks about 4paws and its founder Karen Shirk. This article is really awesome so I'm posting it hear - please take the time it is well worth it.

Hopefully it will bring some additional understanding of Kennan and his struggles as well as what kinds of things our service dog would help him with. Also take time to watch the video at the top of the article - it talks a little bit more about the training of these dogs and placement with kids!!! :)
