Today, two of our group's puppies graduated as working guides at Guide Dogs' San Rafael campus!
Ventana and Ruby are both now official guides and will both be staying in California.

It was a great day for a graduation- not too hot which is always nice. Unfortunately, GDB is redoing their dorms and graduation stage so this graduation was set up in a relatively tight area. It was very hard to see and I was unable to get any pictures during the actual ceremony (Except a few of Partner).

After the ceremony, it was totally chaotic with so many people in such a tight space so I was only able to catch one quick (and not very good) picture of Ventana.

I couldn't even find Ruby!
But Partner did get some pets and loves in by a whole bunch of people. It always surprises me how calm he is when people greet him.
