Service Dog Training Log for “Veda”
Celhaus Vivacious
the former Miss Purple from the VV litter.
back to the main training log page
to the VV litter page
to the VV litter background information
to the VV litter pedigree
to the VV litter temperament test results
Note, December 2022: After introducing “Veda” to several service dog tasks over the past several months. I believe she would work best as a Medical Alert Psychiatric Service Dog for Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar disorders, Panic attacks, Social phobias and/or post-traumatic stress disorder. So those tasks will be our priority until placed.
