Maria Galindo, commu- nications manager with the Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides, said that, within the next two weeks, the puppies, all Labrador retrievers, will be ready to go out to their new homes - some, she add- ed, are ready now. "We need people who are willing to welcome these young puppies into their homes and raise them up to one year of age," she said, adding that after the one-year period, the pups will commence their dog guide training. Based in Oakville, the Lions Foundation of Cana- da trains the dog guides to assist people across the country with a wide range of disabilities. In all, there are seven different pro- grams in place, and de- pending on the program, the dogs are trained to per- form a set of basic skillsform a set of basic skillsf that are useful to all han- dlers, as well as some training tailored to meet the specific needs of a fu- ture handler. Galindo said the foun- dation is looking for foster families who live within afamilies who live within af close radius to Oakville, in communities such as To- ronto, Hamilton, Guelph and Niagara. The families will teach the puppies ba- sic skills and provide a sol- id foundation for the fu- ture. "We're looking for peo- ple willing to take on a sev- en-week old puppy and at- tend puppy classes once a month," she said. "And of course, they need to be able to return the dog to us after a year. That can be the hardest part for some." There are other require- ments, as well. For in- stance, the puppy cannot be left alone for more than three hours at a time. Ga- lindo said it's a good option for people who work fromfor people who work fromf home, have multiple peo- ple in the household, or people who can take the puppy to work or school with them. The dogs have a Future Dog Guide harness that can be worn while the fos- ter families to help to fa- miliarize the puppies with social settings such as pub- lic transportation, malls and office spaces. Galindo notes that when the har- ness is being worn, the dogs are in "work mode." When the harness comes off, though, it's back to being a puppy as usual. Foster families are allowed to play and interact with the puppies, just like they would with any other dog. A manual outlines the whole program, Galindo said. The Lions Founda- tion of Canada is a charity and it covers the costs asso- ciated with the foster pup- pies, including vet bills, food and harnesses. food and harnesses. f The foundation wel- comes approximately 300 puppies a year and is al- ways looking for foster families. In addition to thefamilies. In addition to thef 25 Labs available in the coming weeks, Galindo said, the organization will be looking for homes for a group of poodles in March.

"It's family friendly for the most part; there's a rival- ry between the women in a couple of scenes, where they are trash-talking one anoth- er," she said. "I hope people will enjoy it." She herself enjoys chili and the cast shared a crock- pot of it early in production. "In my own life, I do re- member my dad cooking chili, so I always associated that with him." Milton Players Theatre Group actors are: Erin Spina plays Ava Rose; Esther Chung plays Ellen Pellham; Nectaria Bogdanis plays Connie Gardiner; Ryk Simp- son plays Tucker Dell and Michael Anania plays Caleb Seaton. "This is one of the best community theatres I've worked with," she said. "The team environment and the effort that everyone makes is impressive. We all show up, we raise a set together - it is truly a community theatre and the calibre of work is great." Five Alarm premièred at Port Stanley Theatre and the Lighthouse Festival The- atre in 2017. It's been inter- esting for da Silva to see how the different theatre groups produce the play. "The productions have all been very different," she said. "It's interesting to see how one piece can be done, or what a group chooses to emphasize." Tickets are $29, available at www.firstontarioartscen- tremilton.ca, at the door, or by phone at 1-905-875-5399.
