Assistance Dogs Australia are hosting their first-ever South Australian graduation ceremony. And it’s a ceremony with a difference. Have you ever seen a dog in a mortar board?
A national, not-for-profit organisation, Assistance Dogs Australia trains Labradors and Golden Retrievers. Then they place them free of charge to people with disabilities. The dogs allow their clients to enjoy much greater freedom and independence.
The South Australian graduating teams of dogs and clients will include Physical Disability, Dementia and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Assistance Dogs.
Join them to celebrate the wonderful achievements of their newly qualified Super Pups — and the special people who have dedicated their time, talent and love throughout the two-year journey to help them become fully qualified Assistance Dogs
Assistance Dogs Ambassador and client Tim McCallum (of ‘The Voice’ fame) will not only MC the event but will entertain the audience and guests with his amazing voice.
But the stars of the show will undoubtedly be the dogs and their clients who will appear on stage with Tim to talk about their experiences. That’s the people, not the dogs!
Expect a joyous, life-affirming afternoon of laughter, music and perhaps a few tears…
These dogs don’t just change lives, they give people their lives back.
