His playing panions and wit that day were lan Morgan and Peter Davidson. A hole-in-one for a golfer is like an eight end for a curler. Bruce enjoys both golf and curling but is still looking for that elusive eight ender. Tiga finds a home From page 22 While most of the dogs 'graduate' and are placed with people with special needs, there are a number who don't. These dogs are offered for sale. At a price of $350. the Foundation feels people who spend this amount of money for a dog will more likely give it a loving and caring home First opportunity is given to the foster family, secondly the breeder and if these two fail to provide a home for the dog then the Foundation looks at a long list of prospective buyers "Some people wait three years" Dawn Hutton told the Citizen. A director at the Foundation, Ms Hutton said "while we're always happy to add a person's name on the adoption list, we're always grateful for donations of dogs to our program too" These prospective buyers go through a screening test before the adoption.

Their granddaughter Sarah, pretending to be blind, walks throughout their house with her eyes closed, with Tiga in tow If you feel you could benefit by fostering a pup for the program or could donate a medium sized dog, or want to be on a list for purchasing one of these dogs, contact the | s Foundation of Canada in Oakville at 1.905-842.7344 -- For Quality Customer Service Call : RANDY HATHAWAY Toll-free : 1-800-668-5845 TRENT UNDSAY - Hwy. 356. 1/4 mie 5. of Mwy. 7 (705) 304-3633 Tor.
