One year ...
Dog's Soul has just turned a year but try to take stock of things done has already become a complicated exercise. The Centre of
Cinofilo Dog's Soul in Castelletto Ticino working at full capacity and now have 'been there ' just under 100 dogs. I remember every face and every face, in a collage of emotions that only addresses the dog work as a teacher as you learn to Think Dog can understand. Head and heart, to observe and 'feel'.... worth any sacrifice.
E 'already well past a year since, with so many beautiful projects in my head, I walked for the first time in the kennel Borgoticino:
"Sorry, I'm an educator dog, is but maybe you can make some useful thing together? "
What has happened since that afternoon was likely only a comparison with the 'Perfect Storm'. Go
kennel to put into practice what they learned in Think Dog was 'great challenge' that has absorbed most of my energies over the past 12 months and now, closing the first year, I enjoy with pride the results obtained.
- two training courses for volunteers of kennels that have put together 35 participants
- days "open surgery", format invented in Dog's Soul, which has obtained beautiful results and we hope to repeat soon
- the training days, public events in which to inform the people of what can be rich relationship with a dog
- projects on training dogs the shelter guests, with many results, sometimes far beyond the expectations
- Campus4Zampe the project for the preparation and promotion of dogs entrusts the
- the training day on the socialization of the dogs in kennels, run by Angelo Vaira, who will soon become an operational protocol that we hope will spread as much as possible
- a group of volunteers in that kennel organized and competent, weekly and make their contribution in one year, have put together over 1200 (yes ... one thousand two hundred) hours
I did not do this alone.
Get in the kennel also wanted to say to meet extraordinary people.
The many volunteers who are passionate about a new way of voluntary work in kennels are the engine of everything and goes to them, first of all, my thanks for successes.
However, there are 4 people in particular over the past twelve months have transformed my delusional fantasies in real things, loved the experience that I have not, they added skills and qualities that I have not.
Elizabeth is a true talent in relating to dogs. E 'young but has already amassed an incredible experience of life in the kennels. He knows what it means to work in kennels, she knows what it's like to volunteer at the shelter, and not because she was told by someone, but because he has tried everything on her skin. Often does the right thing at the right time without even knowing why, and this spontaneity is beautiful. Watch her work taught me a lot .... but do not tell you or I will mount the head :-)
Fabrizio vet is the best that I know and decided to do animal behavior and behavioral therapy as its branch of specialization. It reminds me of some musicians that I had the pleasure of knowing: the best are always the most humble, those who seem to hardly notice how good they are. He is so. In the kennel door years of experience and professional expertise unparalleled. By intuition or culture do not know, but when working with a dog becomes a puzzle, he will tell you the way to hang. The right one!! (For more see if my dog \u200b\u200bis still there on her .... and I do not think I ever thank you enough, maybe I could start paying the bill!)
Fausto is a mystery. I believe I have never met someone so different from me, yet there is time when we are not in tune. We too often think the same thing to not be amazed. His determination and its values \u200b\u200bare an example every day and the desire to learn, discover and learn how we approach everything as a stimulus to grow. It is perhaps thanks to this desire to know that in a short time has acquired a capacity to interact with the dogs really stunning. Sooner or later I can make him take a red dog :-)
Simona is the patient and continuous work of water digs the mountains. I get great results with dogs are shy or diffident drugs and the trust that manages to retrieve them are the award for many sessions, go to field all his perseverance made. Organize events with the same ease with which he drinks a glass of water and has the rare gift of being able to bring order even in the thoughts of others (or even in my ).... and make others work like a slave, I swear: -) The novelty
?
Elizabeth, Fabrizio, Fausto and Simon are now part of Dog's Soul, are part of the team.
I am proud that they recognize in Dog's Soul and happy for this enlargement of the family.
What we did until now is nothing compared to what we do in the future.
Beppe! In the results of PS
Dog's Soul as in all other things in my life, Clara is much of the credit. My understanding so far and my support ..... ever!
