Everyone received ribbons and a medal. At a Recognition Dinner, the staff distributed three question surveys to each volunteer. The respondents had some interesting things to say about the impact of 4-H on their lives. The dogs are raised by 4-H members. Club members raise healthy, well-adjusted dogs that are ready to be trained for their future jobs of guiding sightless people.
Youth gain skills in patience, understanding, communication and responsibility.
To date, over 300 puppies have been raised by as many 4-H members and their families since 1976.
