Congratulations, Galya is a Guide Dog

Welcome to the PAWS puppy raiser group.  PAWS is located in Clackamas County,  Oregon and includes the cities of Milwaukie, Clackamas, Oregon City, West Linn, Lake Oswego, Gladstone, and Damascus.  PAWS has been raising puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind, Inc. since 1997.  This site is intended to show off our puppies and offer information on puppy raising.  

On October 22nd the Hotel Monaco held a welcoming party for their new "Director of Pet Relation", Timmy.  Timmy is a career change dog from Guide Dog for the Blind.  With his help the Hotel Monaco will be the most dog friendly hotel in town.  All proceeds from the party going to Guide Dogs for the Blind.

At a recent graduation ceremony, a raiser recalled the words of Dr Martin Luther King Jr. when he delivered the 1964 Nobel Lecture to describe her feelings that day:

"Occasionally in life there are those moments of unutterable fulfillment which cannot be completely explained by those symbols called words. Their meaning can only be articulated by the inaudible language of the heart."
