Mighty Cold Mighty Texas Dog Walk! Saturday morning, April 8th was a cold, windy morning, but it did not stop The Mighty Texas Dog Walk! Central Texas Veterinary Specialty Hospital had 13 volunteer veterinarians and staff participating in this event. Thank you volunteers! The Mighty Texas Dog Walk benefits the Texas Hearing and Service Dogs. Their website describes their activities:
THSD is a non-profit organization that trains Service Dogs and Hearing Dogs to assist people with disabilities.
Hearing Dogs are trained to alert their deaf owners by touch and lead them to everyday sounds, such as a door knock, smoke alarm or telephone. We also train Service Dogs to assist people with balance while walking, e.g. people with Parkinson's, polio survivors, and people who have had strokes.
Dogs Service assist individuals with physical disabilities by opening doors, fetching wheelchairs, retrieving dropped items, operating light switches, moving paralyzed limbs and getting help.
THSD adopts all of our dogs from animal shelters and rescue leagues. Utilizing positive reinforcement, we train the dogs, pair them with their new partners and then train them as teams — all free of charge to the recipients.
THSD invests $17,500 in training each Service Dog team and each Hearing Dog team. We provide the dogs and training free of charge to recipients. We rely on your donations to pay for the cost of training. Please donate today! (Your donation to THSD is tax deductible! Tax ID number 76-0260567).
As you can see, this is a worthy cause, one well worth our support! 1850 dogs crossed the finish line, with several hundred more not participating in the walk. THSD estimates that they have raised over $80,000. Here are some pictures from the event: |
