Hello, it’s Asta again.
Firstly, let’s get something out of the way. Sorry I couldn’t post for a while. My mom had a humanish calamity. Her tail was drooping and her head was hanging. Today her tail wags weakly, but at least her head is up. Now I get a chance to catch up at the computer again. Woof!
Today I want to tell you about my destiny. It’s a special story that makes me, my puppy raiser mom and my human mom pretty emotional.
I was raised at the South African Guide Dog Association, After six weeks I was given to my puppy raiser mom. There I learnt a lot of things and she loved me to bits. After that I trained to be a guide dog. But with every class the trainers couldn’t match me with any mom or dad in that class.
I went from trainer, to trainer, starting to get depressed and feel like there is no-one for me.
One day they came to fetch dogs from the kennel for a new class. I just sat in my corner, already used to being left. But to my surprise, the leash was hooked to my neck, and I was brought to my new mom.
At first I wiped the floor with her. One day after scavenging in every dustbin, she cut her chin on a branch I led her into. She just sat and cried, until the trainer came to her. I had no idea how close I was to missing my destiny.
But on the day I got my qualification and I went home with my new mom, I became more cooperative. I realized she would be the one to save me from the kennels.
She is destined to be my mom and I am destined to be her Princess Asta.
